Here is a really cute video of a bold Tufted Titmouse collecting hair from a sleeping Collie for a nest. Looks like the dog has no idea what’s going on!

If I was a dog, this is exactly how I would sleep. I think it would take a lot more than a bird to wake me up!

    What a nice symbiotic relationship. Would be nice if more human species could get along as well.

    Well, if someone picked the hair off of your head and left a bald spot, you might not be so happy. But the dog is aware that something is going on, he just doesn't know what yet. =)

    oh how cute! I have a very hairy dog named Koby and when we brush him his hair flys right off the deck and onto the ground. A few days ago the same type of bird came here a few days ago and started picking up dog hair. It was so cutez!

    recycling at its best…sparrow in the garden has my springer spaniel’s recently trimmed hair in its mouth for nest building!!!
