Tom-Tit in the Mikado
On a tree by a river, a little tom-tit
Sang "Willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!"
And I said to him, "Dicky-bird, why do you sit
Singing 'Willow, tit-willow, tit-willow'?"
"Is it weakness of intellect, birdie?" I cried,
"Or a rather tough worm in your little inside?"
With a shake of his poor little head, he replied,
"Oh, willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!"
He slapped at his chest, as he sat on that bough,
Singing "Willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!"
And a cold perspiration bespangled his brow,
Oh, willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!
He sobbed and he sighed, and a gurgle he gave,
Then he plunged himself into the billowy wave,
And an echo arose from the suicide's grave--
"Oh, willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!"
Now I feel just as sure as I'm sure that my name
Isn't Willow, tit-willow, tit-willow,
That 'twas blighted affection that made him exclaim
"Oh, willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!"
And if you remain callous and obdurate, I
Shall perish as he did, and you will know why,
Though I probably shall not exclaim as I die,
"Oh, willow, tit-willow, tit-willow!" Roost for a suicidal tomtit
One way to deter the birds is to install visual deterrents like shiny objects or predator decoys. You can also try using noise deterrents like wind chimes or playing recordings of predator calls to create an unwelcoming environment for the birds. Additionally, trimming or removing the tree may make it less attractive for them to roost in.
An Aussie tree hugger could simply be called an environmentalist or a conservationist.
It is not recommended to spray paint an evergreen tree, as the paint could be harmful to the tree and affect its ability to absorb sunlight. It is best to appreciate the natural beauty of the tree without painting it.
That tree is most likely the Osage orange tree (Maclura pomifera), also known as the hedge apple tree. The fruit of this tree is large, bumpy, and green, resembling a brain or a wrinkled orange. They are not typically eaten by humans but can be used for natural repellents.
Wild turkeys typically roost in trees at night to avoid predators and stay safe. They fly up to tree branches using their strong wings and legs, where they sleep in groups to stay warm and protect each other.
This could be a tree's limb or a ship's spar.
Roost in tree
I know all about wild turkeys, if it is raining turkeys will either ignore it or roost in their tree.
NO, they prefer to be higher up in a tree, but if that was the only dry place he could find he may have rested there
Domestic chickens who live in a man made shelter are said to live in a coop. This is also refereed to as a "roost" however the roost is actually the place they settle on for the night. A roost can be any tree branch.
turkeys roost. they sleep in a tree, you will usually find more than 10 turkey sleeping in a tree or a roost at one time. but if you disturb their roost they will find a new one and no longer go back to the one you disturbed.
Most of them just roost on a limb in a tree for the night, but some live in burrows and some live in barns.
Bird Tree. It is left so that birds can rest/roost there, safe and high above the clear cut
If this question pertains to animals and not how many baseball bats can be made out of one tree, then the answer depends upon the species of bat. While many bats do roost in trees, they do not always roost in large numbers. When bats do roost in large numbers, there may be several hundred individuals in one area, but ithey may use many trees. Most bats roost in small numbers (10-15 individuals) or solitary. With specific reference to trees, bats may roost on the surface of the tree bark using cryptic (camouflage) coloration to hide them from predators. They can roost under peeling pieces (exfoliating) bark where the must squeeze their bodies into the crevice. They are also known to use tree hollows. Kunz, T.H., and L.F. Lumsden. 2003.

The function of a bat structure is to provide a home or a location for bats to roost. The structure can be as simple as a wooden box attached to a tree.
Different species will 'prefer' to roost (ie. 'live') in different structures- in the roves of buildings, on the underside of bridges, in caves, in crevice's in rocks, on the roof of tunnels, in mines, in tree hollows and some species just roost in trees. Others furl large leaves around a group of 5-10 bats. But in general, they like to roost in groups in dark, humid environments.
It's a bird nest Actually it's the place a bird will rest/sleep overnight, not necessarily a nest (juveniles and unpaired birds have to sleep somewhere, and that's called a roost). Chickens "roost" - because they don't "nest" as such.
