Re: Pat,

The fixture is not at risk in that way, it is a sort of box and the nest was built on top of it, not where the bulb goes, or any wiring.

I dunno, but I think if it were my light fixture I'd find a bit of chicken

wire and screen it so they couldn't nest there - Just a bit concerned they might scrape the insulation off the wiring or pull it loose & start a fire.  There was a fire on the news here caused by birds nesting in a porchlight - crazy small chance of it happening, I realize.

Try some meal worms soaked if possible. Life is tough until young birds can fathom out that food does not get poked down their throats for always.
