Do you know the French expression "tête de bois" (wooden head) for stubborn,

I'm going with Woodhorsebird. I like to have options.
I love that you just happened to have a real bird's nest lying around :)

Yes, a very angry horse (wouldn't it be lovely to draw the body)! What a great find! It could be a bird too yes or an ancient comb. Who knows, that's the thrill.
