Good mornin.....

My sanctuary includes the step ladder hanging on the wall of my shop. A blue jay decided the aluminum ladder provided a nice wide platform to hold a nest, even though the adjacent glass wall allows viewing from inside the shop.

So far we are getting along. As soon as someone rounds the corner of the house, she flies away. She sometimes returns while I am in the shop and can clearly see her mount her nest. I went in about 10:00 pm and turned on the light and she stayed in place. The light apparently was more acceptable than flying off in the dark.

It will be interesting to see if this bird is able to adapt to coexist with benevolent humans.

Looks like you will have to keep all work activities low to the ground for awhile, or buy another ladder.
