  1. (continued from previous page)
    starling's nest can be found in the eaves of houses. The crow and the mag-pie generally build their nests in the tops of very high trees. The cuckoo builds no nest of her own but lays her eggs in the nests of other birds. The sparrow builds her nest in the eaves of houses also. The swallow builds her nest in an out-house and the corn-crake builds her's in the grass.
