The 'nest' was made up of very small dead pine twigs, several kinds of
painted and unpainted old bent nails, large staples, several 1 1/2 inch
drywall-type screws, couple of old paperclips, AND that wire horseshoe
thing
that goes onto the hose sprayer that locks the spray to ON (I've been
looking all over for that for months).
Oh, this is so delightful. One year a blue jay (eastern) was decorating a
next just above the patio. He had found a chewing gum wrapper, the shiny foil
reflector kind, and would stick it in one spot in the test, step back and
look at it, cocking his head back and forth, pull it out and reposition it
and repeat the process. Sometimes it fell out of the test when he pulled it
out and he'd swoop down and catch it midair. It was great fun to watch.
I've stopped using those venetian blind tags because they do disappear.
