Judging by all the nests I find in the fall around our horse barn, I'd say
*everyone* appreciates the horse hair LOL.

Grape vine bark is probably the most common material used in the 3rd and

Yesterday morning through a window I watched three Crows walking in the
duff on the forest floor. They were on a mission to obtain nest material.
One picked up the actual material (bits of grapevine, I think) while the
second gave encouragement. The third was quietly attentive, perhaps in
watch-and-learn mode.
Think I'll put out some horse hair for them.
