Kinderchick:
Well said, carly & bcf! :-*

birdcamfan:
Yes, I agree with you. But I don't see the sacrifice of these 2 birds as any different than the sacrifice of millions of animals every day for human consumption. There's an alternative to that too. Until humans recognize all living beings as having a right to live, the alternatives won't be pursued by the majority of us so called "higher beings".

 There is always another option if you really look for it and if you place equal value on all species - sadly
some' humans tend to think their value is more than that of their fellow inhabitants.  Two little tiny birds being shot for something materialistic vs something that is a wonder of nature - the birds themselves, what a pathetic species we have become, we deserve to become extinct.

That's a great idea, that someone is interested in building a few nestboxes, sami. :D
