No occupants in this one but it was a couple of Blackbirds nests built around the suspension of an old car and another one just a few inches from it so they must be quite social birds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tuzo 251 Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Working with cars i've seen lots of blackies in the wheel arches. Seen 2 pied wagtail nests in the engine bay but the best was a ringed plover in the middle of 30 acres or tarmac ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
