swiftlet nest

Swiftlets are cunning birds that don't live in an ordinary nest. These nests are not made out of sticks or are in a tree. These birds live in dark caves in Asia. Swiftlets craft their nests from their thick saliva.
Working together, the male and female swiftlet use their long tongues to spit an outline on where the nest would be. They carefully layer the sticky saliva on the outline and the saliva dries quickly. Soon the nest looks like a half bowl on the damp walls. Now for the Swiflet couple , the nest is ready. The nest looks and feels like dried white glue.
One cave can have hundreds of swiflet nest. sometimes, brave men venture inside the cave and take multiple nests even though it is very dangerous. One pound of nest can cost up to $100!
Chefs buy these expensive nests for a savory dish called bird nest soup . this soup might only have a few pieces in it but can cost around $100! Swiftlets not only have the tastiest home but the most expensive one in
