Many species of birds manage to live alongside humans. Some, like crows and grackles, seem to thrive. Look around, up in the sky, in nooks and crannies: you may be surprised by where some birds decide to live.

"Those little nimble musicians of the air, that warble forth their curious ditties, with which nature hath furnished them to the shame of art."
~Izaak Walton
