American Goldfinches continue to tame large globs of nesting material, only to drop it and fly away.

This Black-capped Chickadee was more serious and intent. 

First with the unprocessed cotton...

...then it spent several minutes working away on an old Mexican blanket.

Upside down!

Can you see the fibers in its mouth?

Then off it flew.
