Did you know there are large Australian birds who build compost pile nests so that the heat-generating microbes help incubate their eggs????? HOW COOL IS THIS?! I nominate the BrushTurkey to be the mascot of composting day. #compostingday #compost #birds

@AnneAMadden And then I wonder: do they carry the correct microbes to "inoculate" their compost piles with the "best" thermogenic microbes?

@markowenmartin I will admit to hoping they are ecosystem engineers that are pretty much like us in that they know: If you build it, they will come.... "it" being a compost heap, & "they" being the microbes that naturally flourish under those conditions. :) #FieldofDreams #CompostHeapofMicrobes
