I'm happy to answer your general pet questions. Please remember, I cannot diagnose or prescribe medications for a pet on-line, and I will not criticize or second-guess the way another vet has handled a case.
That being said, feel free to e-mail me at KatDocsWorld1@verizon.net

States I have visited

My guess is House Finch. They typically incorporate hair or fuzz into their nests. Blue, oval eggs and placement/habitat also say House Finch.
She's so kind. Only a country girl would describe my neighborhood as "suburban."
Penguins?
I'm guessing HOFI too. The hair is a tipoff, and their nests are so very cushy, until the babies start pooping all around the rim.
Oh, the house light is a tipoff too...
How cool is that that you pulled out Enjoying Bluebirds More, not realizing who done wrote it?
Yeah, House Finch was my guess, too. Lisa has been watching for a parent bird, and reports seeing "something brown, with a finchy-type bill." A "finchy bill" --- Way to go, sis! You are close to losing your "non-birding" status.
