Nest

Why? In other words, the Mishnah's whole drush was based on what? One word.

Which was? Nest.

What does nest include? Whatever.

One sheikh, one egg, ten eggs.

It doesn't matter.

Nest is a nest.

So now this, this, this, this, I don't understand.

Why are you focusing on the word can? Why don't you focus on all the other words in the passage? Like beitzim, afrochim, right, banim, which are all phrased in the plural and say that it needs to be two or more.

And I heard the criticisms of how he was doing it and whatnot.

But I shared a Nest location with him.

And he offered to always keep me informed on anything he did there and share data from it.

And he held up his end.

A Metal Bird's Nest.

In the Museum of Natural History, at suller in switzerland there is said to be a bird's nest made entirely of steel there are a number of clock-making shops at suller and in the yards of these shops there are often found lying disused or broken springs of clocks one day a clock-maker noticed in a tree in his yard a bird's nest of peculiar appearance examining it he found that a pair of wagtails had built a nest entirely of clock springs it was more than four inches across and perfectly comfortable for the birds.

After the feathered architects had reared their brood, the nest was taken to the museum, where it is preserved as a striking illustration of the skill of birds in turning their surroundings to advantage in building their nests.

Bird Notes, Part 1 Swallows Nesting Sites The swallow is extremely capricious in its choice of locations for the building of its nest, the chief object of its solicitude apparently being immunity from the inclemency of the weather rather than suitability or comfort of the situation.

In the summer of 1878, a pair built their nest in the hold of the old ship Agnes, a brigantine of the days of Nelson, that had been scuttled and sunk at the entrance of a creek or drain on Braden in order to divert the current.

Several feet of water were in the hold of the vessel, no great space intervening between the surface of the water and the deck.

I saw a turtle dove in eighteen eighty-two that had been caged for twelve years.

Some beautiful hybrids between tumbler pigeons and the turtle dove were produced in the aviary of a resident several years in succession.

Nesting of sand martins.

The last sand martin's nest within the immediate neighborhood of the town was in eighteen eighty-one, placed in a hole in a broken sand hill at the rear of an old windmill on the North Deans, within a few yards of where now stands the golf house.

They don't have the food.

We saw, you know, a few adult and an immature osprey, but Nesting was not what we've been seeing.

This is two years now in a row that apparently the fishing boats are coming up.

They've overfished down in Virginia, and they're coming up higher now to grab the bunker and sell it and whatever.

飞天大蟑螂，很小的时候有一次我也被吓到过，就是蟑螂它飞起来扑到我的小腿上，然后我吓得就在那里尖叫。但我爸就说，其实你看你的体型比蟑螂大很多，你可以踩死蟑螂，但是蟑螂没有办法伤害你。按理说应该是蟑螂害怕你。我觉得这个话好像很有道理，所以我也不怎么怕蟑螂。

。哦，我小的时候家长也会这样安慰我，用一种那个体型对比的方式来强调你跟它其实力量悬殊。但我觉得可能很多人害怕蟑螂，除了它比如象征着一些不干净啊，疾病啊等等，就还有它其实移动速度特别快嘛。曾经蟑螂是被认为移动得最快的，世界上跑得最快的昆虫，最高纪录可以达到一点五米每秒。所以我觉得它那个迅速的转向、跑动和飞动的能力[笑声]，也给人的心灵造成了很大的震撼。但是我看到后来好像是找到了另一种比它更快的一种昆虫，叫澳洲虎甲，它可以达到二点五米每秒。那我想跟马雅兰分享的就是我最近生活中出现的那个虫虫的困扰。虽然是一种很小的虫，但它出现在我的卧室里面，然后以及我不知道为什么会有它，以及它的数量真的很多。就是我第一次发现我的卧室里出现了烟草甲这种小甲虫，其实这种小甲虫只有两到三毫米，是红棕色的，你能看到它有一个很光亮的甲壳。仔细看那个虫子长得还不错啦，就是肯定比蟑螂要友好一些。我是在窗边看到有一些烟草甲的尸体，然后后来在网上查询了这种家居常见害虫，知道了它叫烟草甲。我大概喷了居家的杀虫剂，然后折腾了有一个月，不停地往外清扫虫子的尸体，但始终没有找到源头在哪里，这个是让我非常困扰的。因为我查了一下烟草甲，它会比如吃烟草，会在干的烟丝啊，干的茶叶啊，比如干条或者干蘑菇附近出现，它也会吃我们那种小麦壳或者是什么麸皮塞的枕头。但我们家里通通没有这些东西，而且因为卧室离厨房也比较远嘛，它也不是我的食材的储备空间，我就非常，非常，非常疑惑，这个虫子到底是哪里来的[笑声]，而且真的是源源不断。我本来以为它是出现在窗边或者从窗户进来，所以窗边有很多尸体。那我后来查了资料，发现它其实是成虫，会有一种趋光性，它会飞向更亮的地方。因此我发现尸体的地方是窗边，但并不代表那个虫源和虫巢是窗边。所以我在万般无奈之下就请了一个除虫公司上门来帮我处理这件事情，因为我怕我和我的宠物会对这个虫子的比如尸体啊，排泄物啊等等过敏。来了第一位师傅呢，他也是在他看到虫子尸体的地方喷了现在最常见的一个居家的杀虫剂，叫孵虫胺。喷完之后就走了，然后我发现还是有不断的虫子的尸体出现。我又找了售后，除虫公司二次上门。这两个师傅非常让我惊讶，就是他大概在两分钟之内就精准定位了虫源。那个师傅甚至没有去看家里虫子最多的地方，他单是凭地板上虫子尸体分布的轨迹就确定了虫子的老巢竟然是在我的一个玩具里面[笑声]。大概就是两三年前吧，我一个朋友从澳大利亚带回来了一只紫色的熊，它其实在淘宝上也有卖，我觉得可能很多朋友家也会有这种熊，就它是一个里面填充了薰衣草种子和干草的熊，那个品牌叫Bright Stove，会散发出这个薰衣草香的。收到这个礼物的时候，我就把它连同那个袋子和礼盒放在了我的衣柜里面。然后那个师傅从我的衣柜里面扯出这个盒子的时候，我觉得里面可能有几万只甲虫[笑声]，就我已经看不到那只紫色的熊了。然后我也问了师傅，我说这个是它的填充物里面已经有了这种虫卵，它躲过了这个玩具的高温高压的杀毒灭菌吗，还是说只是一只随便的烟草甲从我窗外飞到屋里，然后它找到了一只熊，并且在这里面产卵、做巢。师傅说两种情况都有可能，所以师傅就把那只熊连同着可能成千上万只烟草甲的幼虫一起拿了出去。然后我们家就是没有甲虫了，只是陆陆续续还扫到了一些成虫的尸体。这个虫虫大作战的事件就暂时告一段落。并且师傅还跟我说了一件事情，让我非常的后怕。他说你处理得还算及时，因为如果烟草甲多了，就可能会引来另一种虫子，叫做肿腿蜂，因为肿腿蜂是以烟草甲为食的。虽然烟草甲本身这个小甲虫并不咬人或咬宠物，但是如果肿腿蜂来了，它就会蜇人或者蜇宠物了。那致命的是呢，因为很多园林局会引入肿腿蜂来治虫害嘛，所以城市里的肿腿蜂其实蛮多的。然后我就觉得这整件事情非常的戏剧，这个虫子来源于一只澳洲的宠物熊，然后如果它不走的话，它还可能再引来另一种昆虫，在我们家构成一个生态系统。所以你有什么跟虫子作战的经历吗？

我上一次比较集中的灭虫还是因为我养的月季，它长了红蜘蛛。它不是红色的蜘蛛，它其实是一种螨虫，非常的小，数量多的时候会在植物上面结网。那时候我去查对红蜘蛛应该用什么样的药，然后还特意买了两种不同的农药去交替使用，以防它产生抗药性。但我不知道灭虫究竟产生了多大的效果，因为我的月季很快就死了。月季死了之后就自然地没有红蜘蛛了。然后后来我就想开了，是我家的阳台的环境本来就不适合养月季。

。就是我之前养月季的时候也出现了红蜘蛛，然后也会看到一些建议说可以先用物理擦除的手段，就是把叶片上你看到的红蜘蛛，包括那种网状的东西给它擦掉，看看能不能保持住，如果不行的话再喷药。但我觉得可能我们这种日常的阳台，它没有风，没有雨，这个月季就是很难养活。我现在两盆植物上的嫩芽，我会发现它有的时候会有蚜虫，就是非常小颗的绿色的透明的小虫。然后我现在有一个半室外的阳台，我偶尔会把它拿到外面去，让它吹吹风，淋淋雨，感觉那个蚜虫就没有了，比在纯室内的阳台会好一点。
