A bird is building a nest from twigs. The bird has put twelve twigs together already to make a circle. For each twig it placed into the circle, it wants to weave in six more twigs to fill out the nest. It knows a tree that has dropped a third of the twigs it needs. How many twigs will the bird still need to find to finish its nest? Let's think step by step and output the final answer after "####".

The bird wants 12 * 6 = <<12*6=72>>72 twigs to add to the nest.
It knows a tree that has dropped 72 * 1 / 3 = <<72*1/3=24>>24 twigs.
Thus, the bird will still need 72 - 24 = <<72-24=48>>48 twigs to finish the nest.
#### 48
