Rant: A bird in San Antonio built a nest entirely from wire strippings from my trash can

Found it last week when I went to toss some old coax, and the whole thing was a perfect, conductive little ball of 22 AWG scraps. Anyone ever had wildlife repurpose their shop waste into real estate?

Wait, a conductive nest? That's wild.

Saw a documentary where crows in cities bend wires into hooks for their nests. That bird turning your trash into a home is next-level smart. Nature just finds a way to use whatever we leave around.

Honestly @shanef34, what if the wire messes with their own bird compass?
