Thanks guys! Lots of babies around my place this year. There's a sparrow nest on another patio, but it's 15' high and I haven't drug the ladder over there (cuz I'd have to haul it through my swamp [yard] to get there. There are 5 swallows in this nest and they're packed in pretty tight. Something's gotta give. I hope they can fly better than the cardinals did cuz 10 feet is a long drop to the concrete below.
