So turns out a bird has decided to use the choppings from my flowers and plants that did not survive the winter as nesting, and they decided the front door wreath was the best spot. There are eggs in it which I think are recent because the first time I noticed the nest it was empty, so I’m hoping I get to see baby birds. Problem is, it’s at my front door, and I don’t have another entrance/exit. Any suggestions? Is it safe enough for it to be there?

This is in WA and I believe are finches of some sort?

    I hate to break it to you, but if you use that door regularly then there’s a good chance those eggs will get abandoned. You’re really supposed to leave nests well alone if possible but if that’s your only entrance then there’s no choice. All I can suggest is opening and closing the door as slowly and carefully as possible when you use it.
