Answer
the word "juicy"The ordinals (i.e. first, second, third, fourth, and fifth) refer to the ordinal positions of the letters of the answer word "juicy" (i.e. "j", "u", "i", "c", and "y" respectively). These letters have the same sound as the words described by each clue, as follows:
Line 1: first letter - j/jay - Jays build nests of twigs/sticks.
Line 2: second letter - u (plus "turn")/U-turn - When you make a U-turn, you make "a course fix" by turning around in the opposite direction.
Line 3: third letter - i/eye - This is the eye of a needle (i.e. "a tool that pricks").
Line 4: fourth letter - c/see - One must see pictures ("pics") in order to appreciate them.
Line 5: fifth letter - y/why - Once the answer to the question "why" has been learned, it all "clicks", or makes sense.
