I'm guessing there are very few people that would disturb that nest.

Finding hummingbird nests with The eggs in tact is like uncovering a lost stash of tic tics.

Cool. Hummingbirds are amazing.

Can we talk about nesting season for Racoons, which I’m not happy about at the moment. Pest Control is coming.

We had a whole colony..65 trapped and released over one spring thru fall. One morning 3 babies in one trap. Mama paced and paced, but they got relocated by our humane trapper/exterminator.

The next year he would not renew our yearlong contract.

We had many raccoons traded by an "expert". When Jody read about the bait, she found that it would attract for up to five miles. We ended the contract as we were vacating raccoons from all of western PA.

One year we put out a large trap and for several days in a row, the trap was sprung and the ‘bait’ was gone. We purchased an XL trap and the next morning there was a ‘giant’ raccoon in the trap. We used a wheelbarrow to load him/her into the car to transport and free 10 miles away.
