- (continued from previous page)us all the year round. The Cuckoo and the swallow leaves this country about the middle of April. We have the Corncrake the Tom tit and the chirping sparrow the Crane and Willie Wag tail. The crow builds her nest on a tree. She lays two eggs. Her nest is made of sticks between two forks. A thrush builds her nest with sops and mud. She builds her nest in bushes. She lays five eggs the colour of the eggs are white with brown spots. A crow builds her nest with cippons and lines it with mud. She lays two eggs. She builds her nest in the tip of a tree. The pigeon builds her nest with cippons. She lays two eggs ofa white colour. A Cuckoo builds no nest only lays the eggs and when the Cuckoos have hatched she throws them out of the nest. She lets the other bird hatch the eggs in order she would get all the food herself.
