birds do it...


Yes, even birds do it!
God love the tiny winged creature who so artistically created this diminutive home, made entirely out of found, scavenged and repurposed material! I found it on the ground after a particularly blowy spell, and when I looked more closely, I saw pine needles, tiny sticks, and finely shredded birch bark all woven (using its beak, no less) around a single spruce twig- like a feather in a jaunty cap! No human has ever created a more perfectly exquisite piece of work.
