Explore how birds construct their nests using a variety of materials, from pine needles to strands of spider webs. Learn new skills to assist birds by providing nesting materials and leaving nests undisturbed until fledglings are ready to fly. Tune in and embark on your own journey to welcome and protect our feathered friends, thinking about the future to ensure a healthier planet for the next generations.
