Good Morning, I am hoping someone can tell me or direct me to some information, please. We have some purple finches nesting on our front porch in a hanging basket. I saw they have laid eggs. My wife wants them gone (I am the softee..) as they make quite a mess when the young hatch… It was suggested I move the nest to an very nearby weeping birch (where they perch). Is this a viable option?

I had the honor of being the first survey and banding crews in the Chesapeake Bay Region back in the early 70s. These were done by a group called the Raptor Information Center under the aegis of The National Wildlife Foundation. We based in the DC/MD area and worked the watershed of three states. A handful of nests in the whole area and very low reproduction rate at the beginning. Climbing into an eagle nest was amazing and locked me into ornithology for life and a new career field. It is so satisfying to see the tremendous increase in these terrific birds with the less than ferocious voices!

Estimated to have numbered 100,000 in pre-colonial times, shooting, cutting of forests, and finally pesticides, took a toll on the bird, bringing it to the brink of extinction by the early 1960's. Join Montezuma Audubon Center Director Chris Lajewski to hear the conservation success story of our national bird and learn how the Montezuma Wetlands Complex played an important role in bringing the bird back from the brink.
