That happened to me, too, and I definitely had it last year!
The Peregrine Chick:
No need to welcome them, just need to recognize their place in the hierarchy and our contribution. One thing you can do is wait until the fall and then break up their nest. The birds and any of their chicks will be gone so no harm to them. If they have to rebuild next year, they may move along, or they might rebuild and supplanted the year after by merlins who won't do any work on the nest and after a year or two the nest disintegrates and in the meantime the crows/ravens have re-established themselves elsewhere and it will take them a few years to work themselves back into your neighbourhood in the meantime, you will enjoy all your songbirds and whatever refugees turn up.
Look for the silver linings ... actually, having birds at all is a silver lining, so enjoy them. Oh, and baby crows and ravens are so brutally ugly they are adorable and like most younglings, their first flights are usually a comedy of errors. Silver linings folks ;)
irenekl:
I could see in the netherland live cam a jogger go by and I wanted to yell at him to come over and sort out the troubles in the nest. My daughter says I'm nuts but I figure with technology these days I should be able to do it! It will be interesting what, if anything, the Edmonton folks will do. I'm still not entirely convinced I can welcome the ravens and crows to my yard.
