"Swift chicks are feared to have been thrown into a skip during house renovations in South Tyneside, despite #rules that should stop the #destruction of #nests." Absolutely appalling!

Fiber optic cables litter the landscape of drone wars
Birds are forced to use the plastic for their nests

Discarded fibre-optic cables litter frontline areas

"Woven from fibre-optic cable and grass, a small ​bird's nest found near the front line of the war in Ukraine shows how the more ‌than four-year-old conflict is reshaping the natural environment, researchers say."

"Areas along the 1,200-km (746-mile) front line are covered with ultra-thin fibre-optic cables, which are used by Ukrainian and Russian troops to guide aerial attack drones to make them impervious to electronic jamming."

"The cables, which ​can stretch for 20 km, lie tangled in trees and scattered across fields and on the ​rooftops of towns in Ukraine's frontline regions, glistening in the sunlight like giant spider ⁠web." >>

#Kyiv's War Museum is now preserving two of these unique specimens. Biologists plan to run #DNA testing to identify the exact bird species building with the discarded modern #warfare #technology.

Here are three well constructed, now abandoned nests, seen at the Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge today. The first was a confirmed Bald Eagle nest (we saw them a few months ago). For the rest, I couldn’t guess the birds that built them #SacramentoWildlifeRefuge #Nests #Fujifilm

Tom’s Hardware: Ukraine’s birds adapt to battlefield environment, weaving nests out of drone fiber-optic cables — resourceful wildlife adapts to miles of littered drone fibers. “Example photos of these optical fiber nests were shared on Twitter/X by a Ukrainian civil society leader and anti-corruption advocate, Olena Tregub. She called the carefully woven avian construction an ‘apocalyptic […]

Just hanging about: a baya weaver constructs a nest from strips of grass and plant fibres suspended from a tree branch in Kathmandu, Nepal. Known for its nest-building abilities, the species creates hanging nests during the monsoon breeding season to attract mates and provide shelter for offspring.

Rising storm floods are washin...

Nests and crests. @CTGT and I watched this pair of Pileated Woodpeckers work on their nest cavity. The flame effect when the sun hit their crests was awesome.

Hey #fediknowledge !!

I was working in the garden and stumbled upon these kind of tiny cups with some small white eggs (???) in them.

What are these things and what animal made them?

Please boost!

I know there has to be some bubble in #fediverse where someone has the answer :-)

This is what a mistle thrush nest looks like. Text and painting by Susan Ogilvy, from her beautiful book "Nests"

Every morning now a mistle thrush (Turdus viscivorus) outside the window collects lichen, moss, and twigs like it's the last day of sales.

Today she had a tug-of-war with a string of living ivy that lasted a good 20 seconds. She won.

It's glorious to watch.
