Sometimes. If a bird liked the nest the year before, it may return to the same nest. It may return to the same nestbox as well, whether or not the nest has been removed. Birds also may go to a previously used box and re-arrange some of the material.

∙ 14y agoYes, many different species of birds use the nests of other birds to raise their young. Normally the birds that do this use a nest that another bird used the previous year but some birds including the brown-headed cowbird, in North America and parasitic weavers and whydahs in Africa actually lay their eggs in the nest of a female bird of a different species. Once the chicks hatch, they either convince their adoptive mother that they belong to her or they simply push the other chicks out of the nest so that they don't have competition for food and space. Most of the time, the adoptive female doesn't realize that she is raising a chick that is not her own.

∙ 9y agoBirds generally only use their nests during breeding season. There is no evidence that birds reuse their nests from year to year.

How do you knock a bird nest down?
Well, you can make a birds nest using cut grass, twigs, ribbon, streamers, human hair, flowers. Really anything that you can find outside and can for the most part bend. I used to make birds nests out of cut grass and twigs when I was younger, then after I would finish, I put them high up in a tree. I left them alone after that, birds are kinda protective. If your looking to get a birds nest down, then you should try using a ladder, getting it down, and putting it in a tree a ways away, that way the bird can find it again. But if you want a bird's nest just to have a bird's nest, that's kinda a waste of time don't you think?
Can you identify a bird by its nest?
