Aussie Finch Forum

I know that some softbills use spider web in nest construction, but do any finches use it as well?

I have had Goldfinches use it

I've had gold finches use it.

Wow both had the same thought at the same time and almost the same wording

Thanks for your replies.

So next question; is it just gold finches, cardelius species or other cup nesters as well?

Hi Iaos, I have hung spider web in the aviary for the chaff finches but this year had a young star caught up in it and broke its leg in the struggle to release itself. I stopped providing it after that.

jacarinis use it

My Cubans have used spider webs as well.
