Found plenty of nests myself—birds seem to love chimneys, don't they? Never found jewelry, but once pulled out an old baseball glove... makes you wonder how stuff like that even gets up there. Did you keep the nest?

Haha, birds definitely have a thing for chimneys, but honestly, keeping the nest? Nah, that's just asking for trouble. Last time I left one up there thinking it was harmless, ended up with a whole bird family reunion and a chimney blocked worse than rush hour traffic. As for weird finds, baseball gloves are cool, but try explaining how a frisbee got wedged halfway down mine... kids these days must have some serious throwing skills.

Haha, frisbee halfway down the chimney? That's impressive... and kinda terrifying. I'm a first-time homeowner, and honestly, every weird noise or random object I find around the house makes me question my life choices. Just last week, I heard scratching in my attic and was convinced it was some horror-movie-level infestation. Turned out to be one very determined squirrel trying to stash acorns in my insulation.

But yeah, birds nesting in chimneys sounds like a nightmare waiting to happen. Good call on removing it before you ended up hosting the next big bird family reunion. And hey, at least your chimney's got character now—frisbees and baseball gloves are way cooler than the random rusty nails and old soda cans I've been finding around my place lately...

Haha, squirrels are relentless, aren't they? Ever wonder how they even decide your attic is the perfect acorn storage spot? And rusty nails... you sure your house isn't secretly auditioning for a haunted house special on HGTV?

Haha, squirrels definitely have their own logic, don't they? Ever checked if there's a small gap or loose shingle up there? Sometimes that's all the invitation they need. Rusty nails could mean moisture sneaking in—have you noticed any damp spots or discoloration on ceilings or walls? Houses have their quirky ways of giving us hints... maybe yours is just nudging you to take a closer look before the next big storm rolls through. Hang in there, you're not alone dealing with these attic invaders.
