Summary: I feel so awful - we have had jackdaws nesting in our chimney for the last three years and now we have decided to take action! They are sitting there, wondering why they can't get to their gorgeous nest, lined with down... but they have managed to remove the contraption which the builders put in place!!

What if
we lit a fire?
and you
and your little ones
were burned alive?

What if
we decided to
cap the chimney
in February?

What if
we did nothing
so that
one small part

of God's creation
could live
in peace
as He intended?

So.. what if..
we just let you
live your life
as we live ours...
