That's cool! That means they have air in there.

Chicks in eggs are durable. A hen will let individual eggs cool to slow development. This allows her to align the hatching of eggs of different ages. I've had hens hatch like half their eggs and abandon the rest, only to have another hen hop on for a quick hatch out. It's super cool.

Pool party!

You've probably seen pictures of Japan outside the cities, where not much land is wasted and it's pretty neat and tidy.
This is a problem for the birds because they need twigs, weeds, and tree litter to build nests.
Some of the big birds are using coat hangers. Now you know if the Japs are cleaning up twigs they sure aren't
throwing coat hangers around, but they do put clothing on hangars to air out on the porch.
The birds, sometimes in pairs, will pull any cloth items off the hanger to steal it. Probably take a pair of birds to bend it.

What is the pool made of? It looks to be a concrete block with a hose connected to what a hole in the middle. I have a few sweet jugs hanging around so they don't fight over them.

No idea how it's made. They can't bathe in your sweet jug.
