This Sunbird nest is made up of leaves, twigs and even a piece of (Prop)"erty" news,
all held together with grass and cobwebs!
The photo above was taken with the SX130.
I went back later with the SX40 to take the photo below.
It shows that the lining of the nest is silky and shiny. I wonder if it is plant material?
Although the sun was quite harsh, I am pleased with the golden glow of photos.
what a privilege to be able to view this bird Maggie. Thanks for sharing your photo.
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos Maggie - Wow!
ReplyDeleteThanks girlz! Brenda the nest is in the tree above Mrs van Zyl's spot in the parking lot at school. Louis pointed it out to me today. I hope it does not get too messy on her car once the baby birds hatch. I know that Weaver babies reverse and hang their behinds out of the opening to poo outside the nest..... ;-)
