       | I'm sure it seems like a strong base for a nest to begin with,
       | but when the metal spikes poke into your underside and eggs I
       | suspect you may reconsider. But I don't think reconsidering is an
       | option with a birds nest - after all, to remove those spikes,
       | you're probably going to destroy the whole nest and have to start
       | over - something impossible once you've already laid some eggs
       | into it.

       | smart.
