Structural engineer in action
Whether you’re a ‘bird person’ or not, this is stunning!!!
Not
to detract from the sheer magic of it, but in practical terms, how M A
NY trips would a bird have to make with that tiny little quantity of
mud/clay it could carry? (and how far from the nest is the source?)
If
you take the construction of a “circular bowl” in your stride as
instinctive – how the heck does the bird come up with the
windbreak/entrance design that shields the eggs/chicks from the elements
– and at what point in fashioning the bowl do they start to construct
it?
