DSC_3864: Nesting Osprey on July 3rd, 2014 at Grand Lake, New Brunswick. I spent about 30 minutes taking pics and videos of this very cooperative subject on her nest today. She wasn't afraid of me at all, and just sat on top of her nest brooding over her young one.
These guys have obviously decided that the tail fin hinge of a decommissioned Merpati CASA CN-235, is the perfect place for a nest. I guess it's not gong anywhere soon...
Pushed for space, this box was not designed for Blackbirds. It been up at least twenty years and this is the first time one of the four like this one has e been used. And only then because the top fell off. However its still a bit of a squeeze but at the moment it seems to be managing.

I was so happy to finally find these in town on Craigslist. Not really a "deal" at $100, but they are in mint condition, and I didn't have to pay for shipping!
Up and over...Coot leaps from the water to bring nest building twigs and branches on to the pontoon in the old dock near Techniquest in Cardiff Bay,South Wales,UK.
When walking across moorland above Askrigg on the 31st May 2013, I suddenly came across this female Red Grouse, hunkered down on its nest. This photograph serves to demonstrate how effective the Grouse's camouflage is, so much so that I was virtually upon it before I realised that there was a nesting bird in front of me.
A very interesting nesting site of Anthidium manicatum, Anthidium septemspinosum, Anthidiellum strigatum, Halictus quadricinctus, Halictus scabiosae and Halictus sexcinctus and also Philantus apivorus and many others parasits (Chrysis) or cuckoo-bees.

In mei leggen alle vogels een ei.
This Dutch saying (literally translating to: "In May all birds lay eggs") is especially true for this diligent little blackbird, who frequently uses the ledge of my balcony as a stop between gathering wood and leaves and its soon-to-be king-sized nest.
As I found a couple of weeks ago, there is a power pylon close to the Calaveras Reservoir that has a big nest at the top. At the time I speculated that it was a Bald Eagle nest (based on comments from locals who said there were nesting Bald Eagles in the area) but I hadn't seen them myself. Well today as I drove home along the Calaveras Road I looked over at the nest only to see a nesting eagle. This is as close a shot as I can get using my 70-300mm lens. The pylon is in a fenced off area (private land belonging to the San Francisco Water Company) so it’s impossible to get closer without trespassing (and doing some serious hillside climbing!).

Seems we've got a young family in our wisteria in the backyard. Makes me smile.
This nest is about 4 feet off the ground, buried in the wisteria vines. I pulled the vines back a smidge to take the shot, and promptly (and gently) moved them back. I don't have any idea what kind of bird is nesting here - other than she is small and the daddy has a red breast, and they aren't robins.
I'll keep you posted.
We've had cliff swallows in the front entry for the last few years, it's still early for them, and they haven't returned yet. Their nest is too high to see into, so this is a real treat for me.
