There has been a House Wren in our yard since Friday.
It is not singing constantly yet but checking out the houses.

That is good advice. An irate goose can generate enough force to
seriously injure, and even kill, a human adult, so keeping children a

Others have likely already spoken up. But it is illegal to move a nest. One
needs to apply for fed and state permits.

Of course, the problem is apparently the inability or inconvenience of keeping
tiny kids safely away when you're watching more than a handful of them.
If they roped off the area, the kids are probably too young to understand or
take it seriously or remember to stay away.
Let's say they did go
Canada Geese are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, so moving
an active nest would not be advisable. If it gets to be a problem, I would
recommend your friend contacts their local Conservation Officer (

A goose will defend its nest no matter how large or small the person is. I was
birding at Wood Lake and had passed a pair of geese with goslings who hissed a
bit at me as I passed, but I gave them plenty of room. As I continued on a

A friend is concerned about the toddlers who play around it, as the nest is

At about 10AM this morning, I found a Yellow-throated Warbler at the picnic
area near the nature store at Whitewater State Park (Winona County). It was
singing frequently, staying high in both coniferous and deciduous trees near
the nature center and pavilion in the picnic area. This is the 4th
