There a nest in the bamboo tree in my house's porch. It's amazing how a mummy bird can make a nest out of scraps of paper, twigs and twine. This is not the first time (so my mom tells me). The mummy bird will build a nest, hatch its eggs and when the little birdies are big enough, the mummy bird will actually teach the little birdies how to fly (and my mom has been observing this). It's almost exactly how it's portrayed in Disney Cartoons (or National Geographic, for that matter) Then the nest will be left bare and my mom will remove it (and no, the mummy birds do not believe in recycling, my mom tried leaving it there...no tenants). Couple of months later, it will start all over again. I tried to take a pic this morning, but i kinda frightened the mummy bird away (bad boy).
Laws of nature....fascinating.
