"... Remember, if you happen to find a during the , leave the nest as undisturbed as possible. Back away, and do not touch the nest, eggs, or young birds. Often squirrels, s, several other mammals, s, s, s, and s are more than happy to have you "point out" a nest and will raid it if you disrupt the site or call attention to it. Many people find juvenile birds that have just left the nest and may appear to be alone. Usually they are not lost but are under the watchful eye of a parent bird and are best left in place rather than scooped up and taken to a foreign environment. In the winter, nest hunting can be great fun and has little impact, as most nests will never be used again. They are easy to see once the foliage is gone, and it can be a challenge to attempt to identify the maker."
