Category:Birds building nests[edit]

seems to be a duplicate to Category:Birds nesting Reseletti (talk) 14:10, 23 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Not at all!
Category:Birds nesting are for example breeding birds, birds feeding young etc. Everything where a bird has a nest and lives in or with it.
Category:Birds building nests are birds, which carry sticks, grass, feathers and add them to the nest, as it is not yet ready or they want to repair or change it.
Category:Birds building nests may be a subcategory of Category:Birds nesting, depending if you think nesting begins with nest construcion, but it is not the same, as a nest with a breeding bird or chicks is usually ready and no nestbuilding activity occurs then.

I think of "nesting" as a synonym for building a nest. Perhaps Category:Birds nesting could be moved to Category:Birds in nests? - Themightyquill (talk) 11:32, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
