A Baltimore Oriole nest is like a bag suspended from a branch high up in a tree, narrow where it is attached but widening at the bottom. The sky is gray and cloudy behind this nest.

A Baltimore Oriole nest is like a bag suspended from a branch high up in a tree, narrow where it is attached but widening at the bottom. The sky is totally clear, blue, behind this nest.

One good thing about winter, with no leaves in the way you can see and admire the "handiwork" required in the making of bird nests, such as these two Baltimore Oriole nests. #birds #birding #birdnests #oriole #BaltimoreOriole

Me: It is amazing that birds can build nests like they do. I have opposable thumbs and I could never construct, say, an oriole nest!

Daughter: They have built-in tweezers and a lot of free time.

I’ve been working on this painting for about a month. It’s been a real challenge and I’m almost almost- almost finished. Not sure of a title yet, but l have a few in mind.

Alas, butcherbirds nest abandoned when tree fern sprouted In my previous post, I wrote about a pair of Grey Butcherbirds that had built their nest in a tree fern below our house. The problem with tree ferns is that they sprout new fronds from the centre o…

A Cactus Wren as it was emerging from his nest on top of a Cholla cactus. The bird spent the entire morning that we watched it gathering grasses and feathers to make its nest. #birds #cactuswren #birdnests #tucsonaz

Please look before you trim! Check shrubs, gutters, and corners before trimming. Listen for chirping. Watch for adult birds flying in/out. Wait until September for major cleanup and landscaping. I'm only here a few weeks, but it's my whole world! #SafeTreeTrimming #BirdNests #WaitTillSeptember

Nature finds a way!

This bird's SHOCKING nest location proves adaptation knows no limits. Remember: disturbing active nests is often ILLEGAL—maintain distance and call wildlife experts!

The species formerly known as the Olive-Backed #sunbird (is it Ornate Sunbird or Garden Sunbird now, I have trouble telling them apart) started a nest in my area! I tried doing a #timelapse, think it could be better, going to tweak settings tomorrow #birds #urbanwildlife #birdnests

Two seagulls watch over their nest which contains two eggs. The nest is on top of a series of pilings making up a section of a Washington State Ferry dock.

I discovered a new nest to watch; making a total of 4 on/near my porch. Currently nests 1 & 4 have eggs. Looks like Finch eggs in one and Robin/cowbird in the other. Nests 2 & 3 have had some activity so maybe eggs in those too. #nests #birdnests #eggs #finch #robin #cowbird #birdeggs #parasitebird

Animals self-medicate with plants − behavior people have observed and emulated for millennia Humans have watched and learned from animals who treat their ills with bioactive plants. This animal wisdom has a scientific name: zoopharmacognosy.

In Jamaica for the first time ever and got to experience a bird make a nest for the first time. It was very beautiful to see. (And yes, that is plastic. As disheartening it is to see, the bird made great use of it to secure the nest to the tree).

Tangled twigs: The secrets of sturdy bird nests Bird nests use long, stiff rods that interlock through friction and shape. Vibration strengthens the structure.

Plastic ‘fossils’ help scientists reconstruct the history of bird nests Plastic waste has let common coots reuse nests year after year. Scientists have now used the trash layers to date how old nests are.
