Every human being starts and ends their life in home. People
love to be at home and spend time with family members. Home is a place where
people rest. For us it’s very easy to build a house because of technology and
new equipment’s.
Similarly all other creations need a home to stay in. A bird
takes a long time to build its home with great difficulty. It carries sticks
and particles of mud from different places in its peak and feather to build a
nest. Most of the birds build and incubates its eggs in the nest.
Different birds build different shaped nests. Many poets have written poems
which express the hard work of a bird in building its nest.
Every bird will not build new nests. Some birds
build new one every year, but some renovate the old nests. Though the nests are primarily used for breeding, they may also be
reused in the non-breeding season for roosting. In the nest bird starts their
life. We human beings also start our life from home but our home is safer when
compared to their home. They build nest in between the branches of tree which
may get destroyed anytime. So life of newly born bird is at risk. In
most species, the female does most or all of the nest construction, though the
male often helps.
In some polygynous species, however, the male does most
or all of the nest building. The nest may also form a part of the courtship
display such as in weaver birds.
The ability to choose and maintain good nest sites and build high quality nests
may be selected for by females in these species.
As
a bird takes a lot of difficulties to build a nest, we human being should not
destroy the nest because it’s their home. Before destroying a nest we should
think that destroying a nest of bird is similar to destroying our own house.
