That light it's building its nest on is near the patio door, the busiest door in my house. The dogs are in and out of there, on good days, at least 20 times a day. She flies off each time the door is opened.

Awwww, poor girl. I feel sorry for her. I suppose you can't move it? Are there eggs in it yet?

 

[Melissa]

They always try to build IN the wreath we have on the front door. When we see the first nest-building supplies we bring the wreath in.

 

[labby]

No eggs, she just started building today.

Silly bird! Try relocating it off to the side somewhere, Laura.

And just how hot will that light get?

 

[Belles mom]

And just how hot will that light get?

That's what I was thinking!

 

[labby]

Really hot when we turn it on which isn't often. The nest won't be there long. She abandons it once she realizes it's too busy an area to have a nest.

we had a robin build her next right outside our back door as well. A couple of years ago we had one on our kids swing set.

We had one build a nest on a motion activated light. We didn't see it till it was to late. I guess the nest caused the light to stay on and it caught on fire and burned a hole into the side of our garage. Thank goodness it didn't burn the whole garage and house down.
Now in the spring we check it like 3 times a day. They always try to build one there and we have to keep knocking it down.

Under floor heating ?

That's the nest I'd go for too !
