I found a nest when searching for some small thing that fell out of the window while I cleaned. It is in the middle of August so it is abandoned and I hope the babies survived. Probably a blackbird nest as they tend to nest on walls covered with vines. This one thought plastic was a great to add to the building material and I found great strips below the nest and woven into the twigs. Not only humans use new materials. Even though this post lacks a bird I am posting it to The Bird D’Pot.

Nests can be as interesting as the birds themselves. I like your shared photo.

I suppose if a bit of plastic looks like a length of grass there would be no reason not to use it. It would make an interesting project to look at how much “man-made” material makes its way into nests these days.

Yes it was a surprise. And that window has stood open most of the summer as there is a rabbit in that room that needs to be kept cool as they can´t stand high temperatures, And I haven´t noticed it. But maybe the birds trust me, after all I go around talking to them when I meet them in the street in the morning. I wish you a good sunday!

Nests are always interesting. Just to image all the effort that went into its construction in the hope of producing the next generation.

Yes I think so too. But mostly they are hidden and it is lucky when you find one. I wish you a good weekend!
