The Migratory Bird Convention Treaty signed between Canada and the USA about 100 years ago was one of the first internation wildlife treaties. The Treaty was placed into law in Canada with the Migratory Bird Convention Act. The Act makes it illegal to destroy or disturb an "nest" of a listed migratory bird (primarily insectivorous Songbirds and waterbirds). This has been generally interpeted to mean an active nest (generally April 15 to July 31 of each year) or the nest of a nesting colony (protected year-round).

Before I tell you the answer, let me just say that there are laws prohibiting any disturbance of a migratory bird's nest and there are fines and penalties for doing so.

What to do with a bird nest?
Leave it alone. First of all, it is illegal under the Migratory Bird Act, it is illegal to disturb the nests of native birds (although, if is in the way of something, I doubt they will care if you move it a few feet after the birds have left). Second of all, for your own health. Birds have many lovely parasites that can take up residence in their nests - ticks, lice, etc. They can also carry diseases that you really don't want to get. Third, nature will do her thing. Most likely, within a few months the elements will have either blown the nest away in its entirety, or will have destroyed most of it.
