You are of course right. It's not for me to interfere. The magpie nest
is right at the bottom of the garden and fairly high up. Being fairly
shy of humans, they always approach the nest from the fields to the rear
and I have never seen them in the garden proper so perhaps the other
nests will be fairly safe anyway. As you say, I'll just sit back and
enjoy.

We had one in a tree at the bottom of our garden 3 years ago, see

They didn't seem to affect or interfere with the smaller birds any
more than usual.
