That makes me think of the termite nests I've seen in trees up in the northern part of Australia.

Would love to Emma, but unfortunately I am back home. The nest seemed to be made using mud.

No Emma, the time was not right for birds, it was late in the day. Maybe if we were earlier we could have spotted some birds.
