  1. Is that its nest?! Posted 5 years ago
    1. Yes. I was lucky enough to observe it working on it throughout my time in Kenya. Posted 5 years ago
      1. Oh, that is so cool! Posted 5 years ago
  2. Still blows my mind to this day, the ability of birds to construct nests, some of which as we see here are simply incredible in design and form. I've watched with great intrigue, documentaries featuring these birds and how lucky you are Eric to have seen in life! And this is a splendid image you have shared. Posted 5 years ago
    1. Thank you so much Ruth!
