As to strange nests: As a boy roaming about in the woods in Gelderland in 1943 I found a blackbird nest completely made from the black/silver strips strewn by the RAF planes to confuse the German radar. I took it to the Rotterdam natural history museum, where it was displayed by the then director, Dr.van Poederoyen. Last year I asked the present director, Moeleker, whether it was still there. Unfortunately most of the collection was destroyed by a fire some years ago (including the filing system), so I don't have any pictures of it and I have no proof that it ever existed.
Anyway, thanks for the best BBC programme of all!
