A lot of birds add bits of green vegetation to our nests. I love how scientists work so hard to tease out why we do the things we do. All they'd have to do is ask--oh, but they can't speak our language! It's like the end of Close Encounters of the Third Kind, only where they thought those extraterrestrials must be smart because they could make musical tones, they don't seem to realize the same thing is true about us other species right here on earth.
