... to build a nest!
Story here.
Work to build a Nottinghamshire highways depot has been delayed after a bird built a nest on a 17-tonne digger.
The driver stopped using the machine to excavate drains at the Bilsthorpe site after he spotted a pied wagtail swooping under the vehicle.
Site manager Charles Cresswell said it would be another 15 days before the eggs hatched, the fledglings flew off and the machine could be used again.
Despite this, he said he expected the project to finish on time.
