TTC After a Loss

I Have 2 Bird Dogs.

I also have a very low nest in my yard with baby birds in it.

So I'm a liiiittle bit nervous.  I like the dogs being able to play outside without me constantly watching.  They're constantly sniffing around it. If I take that whole birdhouse out of the ground and move it, their mama won't be able to find them, right?  What to do, what to do?

  • Oh no!  I am not sure what to do as far as moving the nest.  I know it's a pain but perhaps just keep on eye on your dogs while there are out.

  • Oh man, my GSPs would be on that like white on rice. Those baby birdies would be no more by now. I have no advice aside from keep the pups away till the birds are big enough to fly off.
  • Moving the nest would be bad.  Could you barricade area so the dogs can't reach the nest?  Maybe temporary fencing or something.  Pepper is fine with nests, it's Toby I always worry about, but I can't figure out how to protect them from a cat.

  • Oh gosh - I wouldn't know what to do either.  I like the barricade idea if you can think of something.  Hope you can figure something out!
  • Thanks!  I'll try the barricade idea.  I took the pictures a few days ago so they're much bigger now.  Hopefully they'll fly away soon!
