Question by Jr. is angry: can any one identify this bird?
i am have a problem with birds in my porch that will not leave, when i go out there, they scream, then birds out side scream.
can you identify the birds? can you tell me why they wont leave the porch ? why do the outside birds scream?
it has been suggested the bird in the porch is too young to fly away and mom is the one outside screaming. but, in the last video, you will see where two were roosting last night. when i posted the video of the roosting, i was told it was a nest, but in this video i do not see anything that would suggest it was a nest, like debris.
here are the videos, sound is included, maybe you can identify by the screaming.
i suggest you turn the volume down, in the second video the outside ones get loud, even louder when i open the window.
(i know it looks like “duh, just open the window, it is trying to leave” but when i open one of those large windows, it does not leave. it will only fly into glass, screens, ladders, buckets, walls. not through open windows)
here are the other questions, if you need more info.

birdgirl -
if i knew it was a nest, i would not be asking.
i do not see a nest, i see a roost.
in the video where i film the bush and the tree, that is through the open window. the windows the bird flies into are hinged at the top and swing open from the bottom, then clip to the ceiling. the opening is about 4′ x 2 ‘. i have left it open all day and the birds will not leave.
I have had as many as 6 flying around in that porch on two different occasions.
i know i posted this before, which is why i linked to the other questions.
i am fully aware of a momma bird staying near the nest until her babies can fly. i have never seen a bird that will not leave, and a mom that wont come in to take care of the bird.
i do not believe the nest is in the porch, i think the bird may have gotten stuck there somehow after leaving his nest. I would like to get him out, figure out how he got in, and seal the entrance.
to do this, i need to learn why the birds are acting this way

You have a family of Carolina Wrens! They probably are nesting inside your porch because Carolina Wrens nest in the literally weirdest places. They will be probably be fine if you leave them alone and don’t bother them.
