-Focussing particularly on magpie nest due to their use of shiny and manmade objects.
-These nests are built around existing structures in trees for support so I would create a skeleton for it to be built/ weaved around.
-The more sticks/ structure, the easier the nest is to weave.
-Weaving manmade objects like thread/ material strengthens the nest whilst connecting the natural materials to the materials from my home.


SECOND NEST EXPERIEMENT
-Making the nest more oval and enclosed over the top to make it thrown like.
-More adapted to human inhabitants.
-Using vines instead of brittle sticks as they are more malleable and creates a webbed/ basket affect in which I can weave more sticks into.
-Embracing techniques of building that animals use is humbling and connects me to my natural instincts/ nature.
