Everything you need in plain sight, exactly where it's supposed to be.

And look at that majestic nest behind! An iron grass throne for the kids, because they deserve the very best! They'll be our little dragon eggs if you'll be my khaleesi...

Smh my head, people will see a guy thriving with his milk bottle caps and claim he's a barbarian for only having one cloth peg. Let birds enjoy things.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowerbird

Bowerbirds (/ˈbaʊ.ərbɜːrd/) make up the bird family Ptilonorhynchidae. They are renowned for their unique courtship behaviour, where males build a structure and decorate it with sticks and brightly coloured objects in an attempt to attract a mate.
