HIKING TO NESTING GROUNDS

While some birds will protect their nest until death, others will abandon it even if mildly disturbed.  Therefore, whenever one mingles with mama bird and hatched OR unhatched baby bird, the first rule of nature is to know about the species before attempting a visit.

Many birds are protected species, such as eagles. Nesting eagles are a magnificent experience, though viewing should be done (as with all bird species) from afar.

When hiking, if you happen upon a nest situated either on the ground or above, walk on by. If you come across a baby bird who has fallen from its nest in the wild, stand clear and examine before rushing to aid the fallen feathered fowl. It may be learning to fly.

Keep in mind that birds can transmit disease, so if for some reason you must handle one, be certain to thoroughly wash afterwards.
