I was sitting outside waiting for the kids getting home from school and I noticed a bird standing in the driveway chattering away.  Then I hear return chattering coming from toward the house.  Trying to see where it was coming from, I finally spotted a bird's head sticking out of the air vent near the roof.  Evidently she was stuck in the attic and couldn't quite get out through the air vent.  So, I grabbed a ladder and climbed up to the vent.  I used a metal pole to pry apart the aluminum vent to give the bird room to get out.  I put the ladder back and stood around a while to see if the bird would finally come out but she didn't.  Anyway, a day later, I don't hear any more chattering.  Hoping she came out and didn't decide to live there!  John

That's quite possible.  It just looked like she managed to get in but not back out.  I do hope though, that she's not planning on raising a family in there.  Either way, I'm pretty sure she can get out now.  The attic entry is made in a way that makes it very nearly impossible for me to actually get up on there to see what's going on.  John

Is the bird still there and nested?

No sign of her since I opened that vent.  That's not to say she hasn't nested in there but I haven't seen or heard a thing.  I'm sure she can get out but I'm reluctant to close that vent unless I know she's out.  John
