Bird's nest


 * This article is about nests dropped while Woodcutting. For nests used in Summoning and Herblore, see Crushed nest.



A Bird's nest can be found when cutting trees, as a reward from Wyson the gardener, collected from the Managing Kingdom minigame, and sometimes as a reward in the Gnome Restaurant minigame. If a player is cutting a tree and sees it on the ground, they are advised to pick it up as it will soon disappear. Wyson will give players nests in exchange for Mole claws and Mole skins, which are dropped by Giant moles and Molanisks.

The nests may contain tree seeds (which are used for Farming), gold rings, raven eggs, or bird's eggs. They can also be crushed with a pestle and mortar for use in making Saradomin brew, made by Herblore.

While a bird's nest cannot be traded, crushing one with a pestle and mortar will turn it into a crushed nest, which is tradeable.

One other route to obtaining birds nests is using the Miscellania and Etceteria kingdom to work on cutting maple, teak, or mahogany - a few nests a day can be obtained via this method.

Also, with the Hunter skill, players can make a Strung rabbit foot which will increase the chances of getting a bird's nest while Woodcutting. However, players must have completed the Eagles' Peak quest to catch rabbits but completion of the quest isn't required for wearing one so they can be bought from the grand exchange.

With the release of the Summoning skill by Jagex in January 2008, many players started desperately hunting for bird's nests, with the hope of getting a bird's egg which can be hatched if a player has the appropriate Summoning level.

On 3 March 2009, after numerous complaints by players not hearing whenever the nests dropped to the ground, Jagex decided to upgrade the sound effect of a bird's nest, which is now a bird chirping.

Possible loot
NOTE: There are two different kind of nests with seeds which have separate piles in the bank. Woodcutting and Managing Miscellania minigame nests give only rings, eggs, and tree seeds. Nests from trading in mole claws/skins can give any of the rewards listed below.
