It is very common. Odors from excrement or the baby's fur itself will attract predators. Just because a predator finds a nesting site doesn't mean that they will attack immediately. So animals have several nesting sites for safety from predators. Even predators in the wild will have several sites since, should the mother be out hunting, if the babies are found they would be easy prey for whatever adult animal that happened upon them.

Can you tame wild birds?
You can try by handling the baby birds and feeding them if you want. Really, all you have to do is MASH up a worm and spit all over it so there is saliva, then feed it to the baby bird. I recommend using an eye-dropper to squirt it gently into the bird's mouth. Make sure to handle them gently and often so they trust you. Make sure you return them to their mother's nest though and not a different nest or a nest you made, and keep an eye on the nest incase the mother decides not to come back. DO NOT MESS WITH THE NEST or the mother might not return.
