Birds and Their Nests

Every spring the mynah birds try to build their nests on the top of the pillars that support our Worship Center roof. They leave massive amounts of debris on the ground and it takes a lot of work to keep it cleaned up

No matter what we do the birds come back for more. I have tried moth balls, rags soaked in bleach, rubber snakes, furniture polish spray (lemon scented...yuch!) and more.

Today, after cleaning up on our monthly work day, Charlie produced some light netting material. It took him 30 minutes to arrange it around one half of one pillar. After looking it over he now figures that the birds will probably find a way to get inside and enjoy the privacy!

Jesus said, "Even the birds have nests but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head."

In our case we wish it was the other way around!
