If a human touches baby birds nest will the parents come back to care for them?

It is a common misconception that if a human touches a baby bird's nest, the parents will abandon it. In fact, most species of birds will continue to care for their young, even if the nest has been disturbed. However, there are a few exceptions to this rule. For example, some species of birds, such as the American Robin, will abandon their nest if it is moved or disturbed too much.

That said, it is still best to avoid touching or disturbing a bird's nest, as it may cause stress to the parents and chicks. If you find a bird's nest with eggs or chicks, the best thing to do is leave it alone. If the nest is in a dangerous location, you can carefully move it to a nearby, safer location.
