One of my buddies used to flip houses. Buy low, fix them up, live there for a while to finish the odds and ends, and sell it.
One house he bought had a squirrel make a huge nest in the attic of a house that no one lived for several years. That house had an upstairs game room, and a door to easily walk int the attic. The squirrel nest just close to the door.
He sealed up the hole and repaired the house, but he left the huge nest in place. He sterilized it with some chemicals as he rebuilt the house. He bought three ostrich eggs and put them in it. He had a 10 year old son that had lots of friends come over to play on the three pinball games, and several video games.
Invariably one of the boys would ask where that door went. He would make them all get real quiet, and open the door slowly and tell the other boys they had a huge bird that live up there. When they saw the eggs, they all were blown away, and of course told their friends about it.
My buddies son had a bunch of friends come see the nest.
