Some birds build their nests in the strangest places. outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-61855542352668746002015-04-21T11:38:26.164-05:002015-04-21T11:38:26.164-05:00There are so many bird nests in my bamboo: grackle...There are so many bird nests in my bamboo: grackles, robins, and cardinals are the ones that I'm sure of, and there may be more. <br /><br />Maywyn: I'm also surprised that both cardinal nests are so low to the ground!<br /><br />Steve: if you get that sizeup you're hoping for, you won't be able to tarp and then you'll get topkill like I did.

That's looking much worse than any of my bamboos after the tough winter, but the tarps definitely blocked out a lot of the potential damage. <br /><br />My P nigra has hardly any leaf burn at all after a brutal winter so I'm interested in seeing how big it gets next month with shoots.

But the stalks (stalks?) of the bamboo must also act like metal bars between birds and predators.Lucy Corrander Now in Halifax!https://www.blogger.com/profile/14685242329129914772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-46045388848109568362015-04-21T05:42:56.084-05:002015-04-21T05:42:56.084-05:00I'm surprised they opted for that spot seeming...I'm surprised they opted for that spot seeming as bamboos sway but they do look content there.Mark and Gazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427245730390252976noreply@blogger.com
