Making nests for birds.

It is already spring and birds are going to migrate to warm countries very soon.  There are not a lot of birds now in Russia but very soon they will migrate here.  
I decided to make nests for birds. Because there are not enough nests birds cannot lay their eggs sometimes.  So by making a nest I think I have engaged with issues of global importance. I also undertook new challenges and developed new skills as I never made a bird nest before. 
A very firs thing that I had to do was to develop a simple but effective way to make it. I surged on the internet but all of those ways didn't suit my needs.  So that is why I came up with my own way of making it.  I took my moms plastic bowl,  found some paper bags and a glue. 
The second step was to cut a paper bag into small pieces.  Once I did that there were a lot of small papers,  which is good because the nest has to be warm and soft.  After that I covered the plastic bowl with glue from the inside.  And stuck the papers on the inner side.  I couldn't   turn the bowl because it had to dry so I waited for 10 minutes.  
Then I did the same with the other side of the bowl.  
So nest was ready and the final thing was to put some raspings in it so that it will be comfortable for birds to lay their eggs. I had a hamster a long time ago and his rasping were still left.  So I used all of it for the nest. 
I think by doing this I have shown perseverance and commitment. And increased my own strenght and areas for growth.  
I nest still didn't put the nest on a tree but planning to do that very soon. And as I really liked making a I think I will make it once more!
