HELP!
We have not driven our car in two weeks. A Carolina wren built her nest in the spare tire. One egg has hatched. We have to drive the car Monday.

Is it possible to move the nest to a small tree or bush? Does anyone know?

1. If you do you must be super careful that the mother and father
birds cannot smell you. So please don't touch the nest with your hands and if you use any kind of tool make sure it doesn't smell human, also. I'm not a bird specialist, though and don't know if it will work even then. But sincethere is a baby bird already I hope they'd go on with their work even if the nest has moved.

But I think it's great that this poses a problem for you! Others might have just taken the nest out and the hell with the birdies.
