What to do about nesting Brewer’s Blackbirds?
Hopefully this is an appropriate place to ask this. I’ve recently discovered that we have a pair of Brewer’s Blackbirds nesting in a shrub outside of my apartment. They’ve been in the area for weeks, but ever since starting the nest a few days ago, the male has become very hostile/territorial. He’s been watching people intently, and on several occasions has dived at people until they go away.
The nest is in a pretty unavoidable spot, so I’m not sure what the proper thing to do is. Should we call animal control? I’ve tried reaching out to management, and they don’t seem to know what to do either…
