MR. BLUEBIRD SAYS DON"T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT !
Those house sparrows are really annoying and loud. They ruined my chickadee family by trying to get into the box and the chickadee and sparrow had a brief row and the chickadees abandoned the nest. I was able to keep them out of my yard(they hung out in my quince tree) by throwing rocks at them for several days. No, of course never hit one, but they got the message. They are so pesky. How does one keep them away? Tks
I live in North Vancouver, B.C. Canada
