Just change another animal and imitate it according to the pattern of magpies building nests.
For example: when a squirrel builds a nest, he first moves some small pieces of wood, staggers them together, then plaits them with some dry moss, then squeezes the moss tightly and flattens it to make the building spacious enough. , solid enough.
In my impression, magpies build their nests by taking small branches and piling them up randomly. As long as it is strong enough to support the huge body and can rest at night, it is enough. I occasionally saw magpies on top of their nests today. They are quite smart. When it rains, the magpie's nest is leaky.
How to protect them from heavy rains? Compared with swallows' nests and magpie's homes, they are simply rough and unnecessary. All kinds of small branches are piled up randomly, with no ventilation or rain, and no shade to prevent cold and warmth. As a result, it can only be regarded as a resting place at best, not like a home at all. The tops all open toward the sky.
The sun is shining brightly and the rain is heavy. I have always wondered what a bird like the magpie would do on a rainy day! Why don't you turn it into a drowned rat? I just saw today that they actually know how to put a roof over their nest. Although it is still rough, it can still play a certain role in extremely bad weather. Hail may be kept out.
Heavy rain can weaken some. Coupled with the characteristics of birds' feathers, slightly lighter rain is still acceptable to them. Although the roof is leaking a little, it is still within the acceptable range.
