What's the most peculiar place you've seen a bird make its nest? (lemm.ee)

It's Autumn in the Southern hemisphere (Spring time in the Northern hemisphere), and I get fascinated by a lamp post near me that some birds have been using as a hand-me-down for a decade now.

We have a woodpecker that ia currently in the process of digging out a little cave in our neighbors wall.

I'm in Europe so this is a stone wall, maybe with some insulation. It sounds a lot like it's hammering stone though.

True, otherwise I don't think it would keep trying to dig there. It's been going for about a week now
