Here’s a sure sign of Spring. We have a pair of Doves nest building right now on top of our retractable awning on the back deck. Both parents are industrious and sharing the work. #doves #nestbuilding #spring

A bald eagle has just snagged some grass and mud from the banks of a small lake.  It only took a second to grab the nesting materials and it continued on its way.  Here it is still low to the ground and in flight

As i stood near the edge of a small lake, a bald eagle flew down to snatch some materials for its nest. It then flew over a couple of fields and could be seen dropping the materials near its partner and flying off for more

A bald eagle flying with a log twig in its talons. Seen from a great distance. I watched it fly to the tree where it built the next and later was able to see the young ones appear and eventually fledge.

Not a brilliant shot, long shot and heavily cropped, BUT... spotting this bald eagle was enabled me to locate the nest that was built. It gave me a chance to watch several years of young ones raised there.

I don't normally post sequences, but this #crow manoeuvring a stick is among my favourite examples of nest building - crow style!

A pair of Hawaiian coots engaged in nest building. The male in foreground has just handed (beaked?) the female a large stick which she will incorporate into their new home. She has the stick crosswise in her beak

Did someone say #NestBuilding for the #BirdOfTheDay theme? A pair of 'alae keʻokeʻo just after Dad made a stick delivery--at Kealia NWR the coots sometimes make nests right near the boardwalk, I guess they feel pretty safe in the reeds and the people must make the night herons nervous. :) #birds 📷🌿🦉

@alan678.bsky.social while some birds may speed nest w beaks stuffed to brim, the male Sparrow did it his way last spring at the allotment: meticulously pulling threads from the hemp bag; a few at a time; with such style!

Twee eksters bij een nest in de kruin van een esdoorn, aan de overkant van de straat. Een vogel zit met zijn staart omhoog, de ander heeft de staart naar beneden. 

Two magpies at a nest in the crown of a maple tree, across the street. One bird sits with its tail up, the other has its tail down.

Hummingbird hovering above thin branch with spider silk in its beak and attached to throat.

"Made from large proteins, it’s sticky, stretchy, and tough...Spider silk not only acts as a glue, holding the nest together, but it’s flexible enough to accommodate the growing bodies of nestlings." - BirdNote
