The Indian myna (Acridotheres tristis) are distribute all over India, also known as an Asian starling (family Sturnidae and order Passeriformes) that has become also established in many part of the world, out side of its native range due to accidental or deliberate introduction by humans. They nest were built in holes or cavity of walls, trees, wells, rocks, old building, under pass of highway and railway station etc. The experiment was started on Febuary 2022 in which ten wooden box were placed at different heights (9 to 10 feet, 12 to 15 feet and 18 to 20 feet) in campus of government degree college B.B. Nagar, Bulandsahar, U.P., India. Indian myna search site for nest building were started in the beginning of the breeding season. In this study it was observed that nesting materials were twigs of neem, gulmohar, dry grass and leaves of local region, piece of cloths, plastic or transparent polythene strips, metal wire, bird feathers etc found in the their nest boxes and also in one natural site. Maximum nest material act as insulator that is help in decreasing heat exchange result play an important role in eggs incubation.
