    We have this fancy Blue Bird nesting box in our garden , last year a Bermuda House Sparrow built her nest in the box, we did not think fair to evict the sparrow,some do ! The sparrows are back at it again.

    There is allot to be said for ” the early bird catches the worm” or “He who hesitates is lost “.

  2. T.D. Outerbridge says:

    Sparrows are not native to Bermuda, but bluebirds are indigenous. Sparrows kill bluebirds, but bluebirds do not reciprocate.

    Maybe “the early bird catches the worm and he who hesitates is lost”, but “When the last individual of a race of living things breathes no more, another heaven and earth must pass before such a one can be again.”

    Allowing sparrows to nest and replicate is one way of ridding Bermuda of bluebirds. So if you do not have the heart to evict the intruder and destroy the sparrows’ nest, at least remove their eggs and replace them with marbles. That keeps the sparrows happy with no ill result.
