Many hummingbird nests are composed of plant and animal matter. The plants would consist of soft plant down, and other materials would include lichen. The most unusual material used for nesting is spider webbing. This material adds tremendous strength and waterproofing. Nesting materials of all birds have a lot to do with the materials available during brooding.

∙ 14y agowell that depends on the bird. Some built plain but huge nests mainly out of sticks and twigs - eagles, storks I would say the smaller the bird the more elaborate the nest of the Long-tailed tit, Aegithalos caudatus, that is found across Europe. The nest is a small domed structure made from moss. The outside is camoflaged with lichens. the whole thing is held together with spider silk. The inside is lined with up to 2000 small feathers! You think this is amazing? When last did you see a small feather lying around while out for a walk?
