Amazing Engineering Feat

We have several wren's around our house - probably because I have made several nesting boxes for them. Have you ever paid any attention to wren nests? They start out with twigs and then after they have the nest outline they fill in between the twigs with dry grasses and then they find really fine material like dog hair to pad the nest with.
Each female wren comes with the ability to make this same nest. It is quite an engineering feat. It is a pretty amazing process. I hope I'm never to preoccupied to observe and watch wildlife.
