Yes, there is scientific evidence--birds cannot "smell human." The hard part is to truly leave the nest alone, resist the urge to "check on it," etc., even if you think you are hidden. That's what really keeps adult birds from their nest/young. Good luck! Thanks for your comment, Ajai.

Because I had 2 House Sparrows that were taking care of 3 chicks. As soon as I touched the chicks, the adults stopped feeding them and 2 are already and one is crying for food. If possible, Please send me some more info. Please search for hitjay2002 in youtube and you will see the video of the 3 birds chirping happily. Hi,

And thanks for the information about baby birds. It's good to know they can picked up and put back in their nests without harm. What a lovely nest. And thanks for the information about baby birds.
