Hey #fediknowledge !!

I was working in the garden and stumbled upon these kind of tiny cups with some small white eggs (???) in them.

What are these things and what animal made them?

Please boost!

I know there has to be some bubble in #fediverse where someone has the answer :-)

This is what a mistle thrush nest looks like. Text and painting by Susan Ogilvy, from her beautiful book "Nests"

Every morning now a mistle thrush (Turdus viscivorus) outside the window collects lichen, moss, and twigs like it's the last day of sales.

Today she had a tug-of-war with a string of living ivy that lasted a good 20 seconds. She won.

It's glorious to watch.

@tksst great science communication information with additional focus on children education about #weaverbirds and their huge #social #nests, making it important to emphasize the negative impact of #selfish #individuals on the #bird #community.
The Giant #Anteater looks like a Surrealist artist's fever dream, but they are actually real and feature an ultra long tongue for suctioning #insects from #nests in #Brazil๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ท Help them to survive when u #Boycottpalmoil #Boycott4Wildlife ๐Ÿ˜ in supermarkets https://wp.me/pcFhgU-1Cd?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=Palm+Oil+Detectives&utm_campaign=publer

The wind took down a cottonwood at the Masonville house. Cottonwoods grow fast and make weak wood, but they are still heavy! This one decided to take out a small gate that lets the horses go down to the creek.

There was a large cavity nest inside the trunk that fell. We're trying to figure out whose nest it was.
