How Do birds do that?
Have you ever wondered or been amazed how a garden bird makes its nest in the branch of a tree? Now spare a thought for the amazing indviduals who created this nest in bamboo. By comparison, building a nest in the fork of the branches of a tree must be a ‘doddle’ when compared to this as the ‘fork’ doesn’t move. But how do birds make a nest in bamboo when the canes are moving independently of one another?
Imagine the dexterity, skill and THE PATIENCE needed to get the first twig to stay in position!! Before the nest builder must go find the next twig and return to stitch them together (assuming the first twig hasn’t already fallen when the canes move). . .
Forget about spiders making webs in space. How does any garden bird START building a nest? This is one wildlife documentary I would really love to see – and it’s right outside everyone’s front door…
