Apocalyptic bird nest.

Positive users praise Ukrainian birds' ingenuity in upcycling drone fiber-optic cable into nests, while negative users call the situation depressing and highlight its tragic intergenerational environmental legacy from the war.

@OTregub Interesting… hopefully the squirrels are not gathering the tiny anti personnel mines and squirrelling them all away for the winter.

@OTregub @stigahund So it begins

@OTregub There is no Russian military campaign against Ukraine. Ukraine singled itself out.

@OTregub @TrueFactsStated Upcycling:)

@OTregub 80 years after WWII western Europe is still pulling huge bombs out of the ground. The landmines and fiber cables will be in Ukraine for generations to come.

@OTregub This area is not only hell for people, but also for any wildlife. We can’t hate Putin & Trump enough

@OTregub The environmental consequences are gonna be intergenerational and will be another tragic legacy of this savagery.

@OTregub @TxnisEST I had to read twice. In one point it’s awesome how modern materials find the way into nature while at the same time it’s shocking me because it’s a wartime were nature finds away around to integrate itself and knowing that 🇷🇺 forcefully attacks animals with intention.

@OTregub unfortunately birds don't have bioluminescence otherwise they may be able to use those optical-fiber in a better way(ie:communication)

@OTregub Pretty fkin insane , the intelligence gap between human so huge yet we still coexist with the same nature

@ChiuauaTeardrop @OTregub ZZZZZZZZZZZZZombi.

@OTregub Life… finds a way…

@OTregub apocalyptic, yes. But the download speed?

@ChiuauaTeardrop @OTregub

@OTregub I'm more impressed at how well the nest is built.

@OTregub @Biz_Ukraine_Mag Horrible !

@KantaLoup_ @OTregub Ooh. Le zing

@OTregub 🥲

@OTregub That deserves to be in a museum.

@OTregub @Valen10Francois Les oiseaux ukrainiens sont ingénieux.
