Day 9

For a reason I have yet been able to explain or understand, there are bird nests on literally every tree that lines the road by my laboratory. Most of them are half finished and look kind of clumsy. Either the maker of the nest was dumped by his intended mate, or these nests were just failed attempts at getting it right. Maybe the view from the tree branches wasn't ideal. I just love trying to understand how a little bird can build such an amazing home with its beak and twigs. Compared to all the resources and measurements and heavy machinery humans use to build a residence, birds can do the same and even better just on their innate instinct. Bird nests are such an amazing creation and they will never cease to awe and amaze me.
