Bird nest

A bird nest can be found whilst cutting most types of trees, including ent trunks. If a nest appears while a player is cutting a tree, a chirping sound will be heard, and a message in the chat box will appear, stating "A bird's nest falls out of the tree." The nest will despawn after 30 seconds if not picked up.

The chance of getting a bird's nest from a tree is 1/256 of the times you would normally get a log, regardless of the type of tree. Players who equip a woodcutting cape will have an additional 10% chance of receiving bird nests. Contrary to popular belief, a strung rabbit foot will not increase the chances of receiving bird nests.

The nests may contain tree or fruit tree seeds (which are used for Farming), jewelry rings, or bird's eggs.

A bird's egg can be offered to the shrine in the Woodcutting guild to receive a bird nest and an additional 100 Prayer experience. These bird nests always contain seeds as a reward.

They can also be crushed with a pestle and mortar, resulting in a crushed nest. Both the bird nest and crushed nest are tradeable.

They can also be obtained by trading in mole claws to Wyson the gardener in Falador Park. However, the nests you get from him do not have a chance of containing bird's eggs.

Nests obtained from Wyson the gardener now have a chance of containing high level herb seeds and no longer contain low level allotment seeds such as onion seeds and potato seeds.

The probability of receiving each type of seed may be found in the table below. This probability applies only to nests received through woodcutting or rewards from Managing Miscellania. It does not include any nests received from Wyson, but the nests from Wyson do seem to reflect similar data. The chances in the table below are purely based on a sample of 1000 nests as no official rates have been announced.
