Thanks.

I'm in no way disturbing or harming these birds in their quest to build and raise a family.

Nice collection. Since you said you were shooting from the car, personally, I have problem with that.
Good and sharp photos.

Oh crap, meant to say I have no problem with it as you were not disturbing the nests.

Somehow, I kinda know what you wanted to say. But after re-read the post, it didn't come out right

Wonderful series and well documented. Good one Bitty!
Isn't it amazing how this bird can construct such an intricate nest.

Absolutely, plus they don't have hands or fingers.
Only a pair of short twitzers.

If any of you have handled one of these nest, you'll know how tight it is woven.
Not to mention water tight too.
