Birds, Nests, and Apple Thieves | San Jose News
Description
A San Rafael homeowner discovered a dark-eyed junco nesting in his front door wreath—so he switched to the side door and asked for advice. Experts warned against moving the nest (it’s illegal!) and suggested leaving it be, since juncos usually nest on the ground. Meanwhile, in Atherton, a frustrated apple tree owner watched his Fuji and Gala crop vanish overnight, likely to squirrels or rats—with birds like scrub jays also in the mix. Solutions? Netting, hot pepper spray, pruning away from structures, or adding shiny decoys to scare off thieves.
