Tweet Tuesday - Ted and Sylvia

They are back.  That's right, Ted and Sylvia are the two birds that built a nest in our backyard deck.  This time they decided to build one at a lower area right across our bedroom sliding door.  Jeff tries very hard to put some barrier in certain areas of the backyard deck so that the birds don't build their nest.  One of the reason for this is that they are messy in their droppings and most times it will be on top of our BBQ or the table or chairs, etc.  The other reason is that they get very noisy when they are protecting the babies and can get a bit annoying.  Jeff did not realize that they have started another nest so by the time he noticed it, the nest is almost complete.  Do you know how hard it is for those birds to collect all the twigs and build this tiny place for the eggs?  I told Jeff to let them be, this time only, and once they've had the babies, then he can issue the Eviction Notice. 

This was taken a couple of weeks ago when they were searching for a great spot.
It seems like they decided not to finish the nest as they try adding more twigs but it keep falling.
After yesterday, I think Jeff won't be issuing the notice at all.  He will have to just clean up the mess that Ted and Sylvia left.  This is the reason why Jeff does not like them building their nest because he always ends up cleaning their mess.  Unfortunately they did not give us a deposit, which means another loss.
