A male saddle-billed stork flies by a tree trunk carrying a large branch in its beak for nest building. These are huge birds with wingspans of ~8 feet. The stork pairs build huge nests at the tops of large trees, such as acacia trees, as seen in the accompanying photo. Tarangire National Park, Tanzania.

This beautiful wasp was visiting a nest every 15-30 minutes, but I never saw it bring prey. It did excavate the nest hole some. I was able to set up a tripod and stake out the site. The wasp was slowed, perhaps, by the slightly cool weather--70s (F)--on a cloudy summer day. Happy Wing Wednesday!

Swallow's Nest (Ukrainian: Ластівчине гніздо, Lastivchyne hnizdo) is a decorative castle near Yalta on the Crimean peninsula in southern Ukraine. It was built between 1911 and 1912 near Gaspra, on top of 40-metre high Aurora Cliff, to a Neo-Gothic design by the Russian architect Leonid Sherwood. The castle overlooks the Cape of Ai-Todor of the Black Sea. Swallow's Nest is one of the most popular visitor attractions in Crimea, becoming the symbol of Crimea's southern coastline.

Spotted this wasp nest on one of my regular walks to Reading Town Centre via the River Kennet path. I have to say I hadn't seen one before and I was amazed at the shapes and swirls of the construction.
(No - I didn't rush home for the macro lens).
Eagle’s Nest is the summer home of William K. Vanderbilt II, the great-grandson of Cornelius Vanderbilt. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, Eagle’s Nest was built initially in 1910 as a small English cottage. Over the next 30 years, the house grew into the sprawling 24 room Spanish-Revival mansion that is seen today.
It is located in Centerport, New York and overlooks Northport Bay.

A male Goldcrest in the garden, gathering moss for its nest. This little fellow is very brazen and hops down the branches to within a few feet of me.
Thank you for taking the time to view and 'fave' some of my images.
Stay healthy and safe!
seen this pileated pair working over this tree back in mid march and got rewarded on my return trip this week
Swallows Nest is a castle near Yalta on the Crimean shore. It was built between 1911-1912 near Gaspra, on top of 40-meter high Aurora Cliff, in a Neo-Gothic design by the Russian architect Leonid Sherwood.
These nesting birds were quietly arranged along the muddy banks of their enclosed pond - the mounds of dirt are carefully sculpted by their beaks and feet, and on each nest a single egg will be laid.

Imagine finding this huge Wasps nest on the wall outside your house! YIKES! I consulted an Entomologist about this and he said "if the wasps aren't bothering you, then let them be, they will leave when the weather gets cold and you can remove the nest then." Thanks for the great comments, Everyone!!!

Snowy egrets breed in mixed colonies, which may include great egrets, night herons, tricolored herons, little blue herons, cattle egrets, glossy ibises and roseate spoonbills. The male establishes
a territory and starts building the nest in a tree, vines or very thick undergrowth. He then attracts a mate with an elaborate courtship display which includes dipping up and down, bill raising, aerial displays, diving, tumbling and calling. The immediate vicinity of
the nest is defended from other birds and the female finishes the construction of the nest with materials brought by the male. It is constructed from twigs, rushes, sedges, grasses, Spanish moss
and similar materials and may be 15 inches across. Up to six pale bluish-green eggs are laid which hatch after about 24 days. The young are altricial and covered with white down when first hatched.
They leave the nest after about 22 days. - Lots of fun to observe.
