FreeLists / birdky / [birdky] another question about a nest

[riordanclan@xxxxxxx]

I, too, just discovered a unique nest last night - it's 
about 8-10 feet up in a small tree. The next is very 
small and I'm wondering if it is a hummingbird nest? 
Have any of you seen a hummingbird nest up close? It 
appears to be made of very fine, almost raffia like 
strands.  There are a few strands laying in the tree 
that we're used yet or are still being shredded for us? 
I think they are from my compost bin, so they are either 
corn husks or leaves from from irises... It's a delicate 
little nest, quite beautiful. Any ideas?
