"as we sit here tonight once again we have people that walk along the sidewalk adjacent to our property, and just decide to walk up in our yard and look in our birdcage to see what is in it. It happens AT LEAST once every other day. Sometimes they do it with us out there and sometimes not. We would ask can we we help you and they say they are curious if there is a pool and other equipment. One even asked if we would sell our patio furniture."
Sounds to me as if you have a very nice looking birdcage. However, it is rude of people to be walking in your yard and looking in.
You did have some input on this, though, as you decided where to purchase your house and you decided next to a sidewalk.
Still, I agree with you it is extremely rude.
Bucco is also right when he says that it looks as though manners of full-time, seasonal, and renters have changed over the years. I do not consider it disrespecting my space if someone turns around in my driveway, but sure would if they looked in my windows or crossed my yard.
