When I enlarged this, I was amazed at how much "stuff" went into weaving this oriole's nest. Lots of monofilament line I spotted and quite a bit of "fluff". Again, same tree where I've been spotting the Baltimore orioles.
That's a beautiful, detailed nest. I put some of Karly's hair on a bush for the chickadees to use for their nest but they show no interest. Must be too stinky!
It really is fascinating what birds use to build their nests. In our former home we had a huge stone fireplace and I used to keep a collection of found bird nests in between my photos and candle sticks. Great discovery!
