A really stupid bird (you'll hear why in a moment) built her nest on a tree near our entrance. It is a beautiful little bird, with big black eyes and yellow beak. She is sitting in her nest, on top of 2 or 3 beautiful TURQUOISE eggs, and leaves only once in a while. There is no spouse in sight, by the way. At the beginning she used to run away each time we entered or left the house, but now she is more accustomed to us. The sad thing, is that this tonta bird did not build a high quality nest, and it is slowly slowly sliding down and falling apart. We do not really know what to do - shall we help her and duct-tape it to the tree (risking she will abandon the nest) - or just let it ride and hope that it will hold? It is really coming apart. Michal said to leave it as is, and consider this as brera tiv'it. Maybe this is what we need to do (i.e. not do). PLEASE post your opinion as a comment!
