Two unusual nests

Bug Mad Girl found two very unusual nests in the garden today. The first one was in the branches of a bush and had a big brown egg in it. The second one was in the middle of the lawn and looked like a pile of sticks. Who could they belong to? It was a bit of a mystery....

Not really! Bug Mad Girl and I made the first one. It was much tougher than I was expecting and really hard to weave the sticks together. In the end we used lots of sticky weed to hold it all together and lined it with dandelion leaves, moss and feathers.

The pile of sticks was Little Brother's nest. I think he was modelling it on a Red Kite or Pigeon's nest. He then decided to sit in it and flap his wings!
