The young chicks have left the nests a while ago and now most of the birds have left and gone south for the winter. The year-round birds, like the nuthatches and chickadees, seem happy that the ‘summer invasion’ is over and they have the bird feeders to themselves again.

After all the work the female bird works on her nest, it seems a waste to see it abandoned. The blustery fall winds or the heavy snows will likely dislodge it and the nest will tumble to the ground, barely recognizable as a home that raised a feathered family.
