Is "This morning at Callum Brae we found the same nest, only inside part on
the ground." related to that I thought it could be two different nests? One
having been built by a small bird inside the older nest of another bird. I
looked in Beruldsen's book about this and the major structure fits maybe
with Satin Bowerbird or Grey Butcherbird but quite possibly several others.
If it is two nests in one, the lining or small nest is close in size and
structure to a Silvereye's nest. But it is a mystery.

This morning at Callum Brae we found the same nest, only inside part on the
ground. What bird is it? Nest expert?
