Episode Synopsis

In the last impulse we discussed the egg, and if we deal with eggs, then of course the nest is not too far away. If the egg is laid by birds, it needs protection. And this protection is precisely the nest. The word nest comes from the pre-Germanic word "Nizdo", which means "settlement". It’s also related to the Latin term "nidus" – the nest. “Nest” is the name given to various constructions made by different species of animals; they are used either for sleeping, living, or breeding. Most birds build clutch nests, which are designed to be suitable for taking care of the hatchlings.
