The House Martins were in the process of building this nest from harbour mud, though I think they gave up on it over the coming days. Why the sparrow was interested I do not know!

    I’ve seen house sparrows take a house Martin’s nest before, not sure if it was already abandoned or not.

      The sparrow was just pure good luck, and a bit of a surprise when I reviewed the photo!
