Nest with an awning by teiko

Nest with an awning

Kip was trimming some tree branches and discovered this abandoned nest. It's very well-built and includes a roof, for shelter from sun and rain.
That nest looks awful close to the seat

How lovely to feature it! Those mommy birds are amazing sculptors and artists!

@digitalrn Kip cut the limb off and brought it to show me :)

Hey, any birdie family who takes up residence here is a lucky little family.. Very nice and interesting shot.

how special. I love to see all the work the little birds put into their nests. You have to keep it somewhere

Lovely to see this great nest

Lovely.

What a wonderful find :)

Fabulous find - so glad you are saving it! The wind is blowing so much here lately, and my resident Southern Olive family have lost their nest.

Looks perfectly made

Great find!

What an ingenious nest-building effort!! Like your composition and I'm trying to read the book title!!!!
July 27th, 2014  
A delightful find.
July 27th, 2014  
Love the title of the book! Cute nest too.
July 27th, 2014  
Fantastic find! I wonder if you put it somewhere if a bird family can still make use of it. What a great picture that ended up being with your chair, book, glasses etc.! Great capture!

Wonderful composition- smart bird to include sun roof:)

and they say birds have small brains...I never did believe it!

I see two nests and the my sized one looks extremely comfortable
July 28th, 2014  
So well hidden that you didn't see it before.
July 28th, 2014  
Lovely composition, I just love the colours and detail Emilie;)

Lovely impromptu still life

Fun composition and that nest is so beautifully constructed.

@hshdebbie Heck no! I think when humans extinct ourselves, birds will rule :)! (Any parrot owner knows they already do.)

@swilde @kathiecb @pcoulson @nanm @cimes1 Thank you, kind people :) Always so generous!
July 29th, 2014  
@joemuli I know! That's what I thought too and looking at this home construction I KNOW it wasn't an accident.

@cruiser I know me too, Chris. Such brilliant engineers! Maybe I'll leave it out and a birdie family will occupy it.
July 29th, 2014  
@swilde Haha :) It is! If only I could spend more time in it :)
July 29th, 2014  
pretty fun nest! I have a collection of them too!
