A weird thing about birds

[@robpeters5204]

I have a dove that builds a nest over my front door every year. I throw the old one out when they leaves in the summer and she builds a brand new one from scratch in the spring and finishes it in half a day. She just built another one last Wednesday. The thing weighs about 3 pounds with all the spit and mud that she makes. She collects particular twigs and building materials from the parking lot here. Incredible builder. My parents have a cardinal family and a blue jay family that live in their back yard. They also have many humming birds that stop by often. Their back yard is like a botanical garden.

Hi Mike it looks like a Robin's best, It look just like the one I had last year under my porch. I had a hawk during the day and a owl or two at night . That's why she an he built the nest under my porch roof to protect the baby's

Maybe they are smarter than we give them credit.

Now what I’m wondering about is the squirrel running up the tree in the back ground as your talking abandon nest on your floor at .25 of the video

[@myusername1962]

two possible reasons. theyre not build for more than one brood, second, they have parasites after time which will attack the chicks

Good question. How’s your truck coming?
