Status: offline 		ok stupid question but if there're trees, and they get removed..and in one of the trees there's a nest with little chicks that've veeeeeryvery recently crawled out of their eggs, the nest is moved to another place/tree nearby, will the parents be able to find it again to raise them? or what will happen to them

Stupid birds keep nesting in a hole in our tree like a foot above the ground, then get eaten by cats. Now my housemate moves the nest up the tree, so far so good.

Status: offline 		Not a stupid question.  I've seen adult birds leave the nest for good if the chicks were handled and I've seen them fly right back after the humans left the area.  I remember as a kid caring for a chick that was abandoned. I ended up taking it to a wildlife rescue center.

Federal law prohibits disturbing/moving the nests of most songbirds.
(The migratory bird treaty act)
