Looks like she's using a lot of shredded paper hopefully she finds something more durable like grasses & string! We had a robin try& build a nest on top of an outdoor light using mostly shredded paper - it was hilarious watching her fly off with a huge beak full time after time - first hard wind that came along demolished her nest Sad

No it is not paper but plastic. Found some strands on the ground. Nest is completely different today, no loose ends and darker in colour. Will post pics later
