Even though the weather has been windy, rainy, and sometimes snowy this past week it hasn’t stopped the construction of this project outside my window at work.

These magpies have been busy shuttling back and forth to their to the nest with twigs and tiny branches- which are relatively large compared to their size, and clumps of random stuff to put this together. They’re busiest in the morning, but I don’t see them much in the afternoon so maybe an expert birder can tell me where they’re going.

With the extreme wind of yesterday the top of this tree was swaying about fiercely- but the nest is still holding up solid.
