I always encounter Raccoons living in my attic, even though I am still a kid we always encounter that problem here in Canada, Recently I noticed that my house is slowly getting destroyed because of these raccoons so I have no other choice but to Call The Critter Guy here in Canada.
Raccoons will usually take advantage of existing shelters. Here are some examples: abandoned animal burrows, rock crevices, hollow trees, caves, culverts, storm sewers, abandoned buildings and attics.

Raccoons do not hibernate, they remain active during the winter months. However, if the weather turns severe, they will remain in their dens and sleep until conditions improve.
Raccoons in the city have a wide variety of shelters. They can hide in an abandoned building, in an attic, under a deck or frame home, in a storm sewer or a culvert.

Threatened to a house, Yes. Sometimes here in Canada raccoons are making holes and Raccoons can be a problem in residential homes as they nest high up off the ground or on roofs where there is no natural lighting. The Critter Guy here Provides services about raccoons and mostly he knows everything.
nest in trees nocturnal (sleep during day, hunt/wake @ night)
Raccoons will nest in hollow trees when available but also will den in burrows, culverts, in attics and crawl spaces in homes, etc. If threatened they will climb trees to escape harm.
Bees that build their nest up high in areas such as the peak of a home or in trees do so to prevent attack from predators. Skunks, raccoons and bears are known to attack a hive and eat the bees.
Raccoons and Great Horned owls are a great threat to a Bald Eagles nest. Smaller birds could be considered predators as well.
Raccoons have adapted quite well to living close to humans. They have learned that humans can provide them with a source of food and shelter. They raid our trash, gardens and fields for food and nest under our homes or in our attics. They even have adapted well to living in major metropolitan areas where they feed on trash and rodents.
No, they are not compatible and each would attempt to kill and devour the other. Fishers have been known to attack animals larger then themselves.
Left unprotected, local dogs or raccoons will rob the nest. Sorry.
Raccoons are not birds. Raccoons are mammals.
