Hi,
I have some pardalotes nesting in one of those plastic self watering hanging baskets on my from verandah. Is it possible to move the basket onto a tree that's about 4m from it's current location- there are young in the nest.

I can see why it would be tempting, but myself I wouldn't take the risk. There is a chance you might cause havoc depending on the age of the nestlings. Personally I don't think its worth that risk, particularly if they are safe as they are and have already got this far without help.
Non disturbance gives the best chance of survival, I reckon, lyndal.
Hi Lyndal - yes i would leave it be if possible. Given they have chosen that site they are probably quite comfortable with you anyway.
