A bird nest up at the folks old house. I ided the birds about four years ago as House finches. I need to confirm that identification because this nest could be either House Finch or House sparrow.
Thought: let’s start a hashtag called bird nest.

@aroundthehills great material for building mattresses in nests!
On my balcony I usually put some material for… the ‘flannel’ sheets. I divided the clumps of cat hair into smaller tufts that are easy to carry, and put them into a clean suet feeder.
Blue tits and great tits do appreciate: one refill per week since the beginning of March!

Clearly we need to clean up our old whipper snipper cord or the birds will! Wondering if this was a magpie nest given the large but unfortunately dead nestling I found underneath this tree some time back. Seems to have fallen unused out of the tree.

Miller (Feb 2025) Why do some birds incorporate shed snake skin in their nest? Rohwer et al. suggest that the evolution of this unique, but wide spread behavior is dependent upon nest morphology and most commonly observed in cavity nesting species...
