Have you ever seen a nest like this before!? Found throughout mainland Australia, the Mistletoebird is native to Australia and as the name suggests, their diet mainly consists of berries from the mistletoe plant. This mama bird has created a silky, pear shaped nest out of plant down and spiderwebs (😱) and perched it perfectly off the branch of this tree for her three babies to call home. 🏠 #MySAMuseum #mistletoebird #birdwatching #birdsoftiktok

Mistletoe (Viscum album) is a parasitic evergreen plant that forms large, rounded clumps of foliage that are smothered with white berries from autumn to spring. It doesn’t have roots but produces suckers that anchor it directly to the branches of host trees, where it can form dense aerial balls over 1m across. Sneaking a kiss under a bunch of mistletoe has long-been a festive tradition, but long before this it was considered an aphrodisiac by druids in ancient Britain. This curious plant is spre
