A magpie's nest is commonly referred to as a "bower." Magpies are known for building large, elaborate nests made of twigs, grasses, and other materials, often incorporating mud and other debris for added structure.

Yes, some termite species build chimneys in their nests. These structures, made of soil, feces, and saliva, help regulate temperature and humidity within the nest, providing a suitable environment for the colony. The chimneys also serve as ventilation systems to improve airflow, which is crucial for the survival of the termites and their fungal symbionts.
