The gland you're referring to is the pineal gland. It is a small, pea-shaped endocrine gland located in the brain, specifically in the epithalamus, near the center of the brain between the two hemispheres. The pineal gland is responsible for producing melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles and circadian rhythms. Its size and location resemble that of a pine nut, hence its name.
The pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is an endocrine gland about the size of a pea and weighing 0.5 g (0.02 oz.). It is a protrusion off the bottom of the hypothalamus at the base of the brain, and rests in a small, bony cavity (sella turcica) covered by a dural fold (diaphragma sellae). The pituitary fossa, in which the pituitary gland sits, is situated in the sphenoid bone in the middle cranial fossa at the base of the brain.
The average adult human brain weighs about 3 pounds and is roughly the size of two clenched fists. It is located in the cranial cavity of the skull and has a volume of around 1200-1400 cubic centimeters.

The average size of a walnut is approximately 1 inch in diameter, while the prostate gland is about the size of a chestnut, measuring around 1.5 inches in diameter. In general, the prostate gland is slightly larger than a walnut.
The movement of the diaphragm affects the size of the chest cavity by when you inhale the chest cavity enlarges, but when you exhale the chest cavity becomes smaller.

The average adult human brain weighs about 3 pounds or 1.4 kilograms. It is roughly the size of two clenched fists put together and fills the cranial cavity.
Sphenoid Bone. Along the midline within the cranial cavity, a portion of the sphenoid bone indents to form the "saddle-shaped" Sella Turcica. The pituitary gland occupies this depression. The Sphenoid bone also contains two sphenoidal sinuses.

In vertebrate anatomy the pituitary gland, or hypophysis, is an endocrine gland about the size of a pea and weighing 0.5 g (0.02 oz.), in humans. It is a protrusion off the bottom of the hypothalamus at the base of the brain, and rests in a small, bony cavity (sella turcica) covered by a dural fold (diaphragma sellae). The pituitary is functionally connected to the hypothalamus by the median eminence via a small tube called the infundibular stem (Pituitary Stalk). The pituitary fossa, in which the pituitary gland sits, is situated in the sphenoid bone in the middle cranial fossa at the base of the brain. The pituitary gland secretes six hormones that regulate homeostasis.
Birds will use any cavity of the appropriate size to nest.If you want Bluebirds you need the right size hole.
Bizarrely, the pituitary gland is no bigger than a pea, even though it is known as the 'master gland', due to the large number of hormones it produces, and its importance in controlling various body functions. If you don't believe me, check out this link for an accurate diagram of the pituitary gland and its location in the brain.
