When Birds Go Big on Real Estate
When birds decide to go big, they commit. This massive nest, captured by South African photographer Dillon Marsh, belongs to social weaverbirds in the Kalahari Desert. Balancing impressively on a telephone pole, it’s essentially the avian version of a luxury high-rise. These feathered engineers craft sprawling structures that can house hundreds of birds, offering insulation and predator protection.
It’s a masterpiece of teamwork and design, proving that birds know a thing or two about real estate. With its blend of function and flair, this nest isn’t just a home—it’s a bird metropolis. No rooftop pool yet, but give them time (and a rainstorm).
