I have a freeloader!!!

We have a new development in The Tree That I Hate*.  This bitch has built a whole house in it!!  Rent free.  

*I hate this tree because it totally blocks my view and it's ugly.  It was planted after I bought the place and took a dozen years to grow tall enough to block the view I had, by that time, fallen in love with.  It's planted in the sidewalk on my side of the street outside my terrace.

It adds a little liveliness to the tree, at least. Maybe some extra excitement. Perhaps the cats will get a kick out of the new resident. :-P

Fortunately, I have lots of eggs in the fridge or I'd be tempted... omelette!

Here the birds build their nests on top of street lights.

It looks like some sort of maple -- as a Canadian, I am forbidden to find maples ugly.

Scott, the building manager, says it's a type of sycamore but if it is a maple tree - I want it extradited NOW!!!

I have now learned that their leaves can look very similar.... who knew?
