Description

A series of photos take with an IBWP cavity camera during 2016 nesting season which clearly shows snake skin in and around the eggs. The nesting box was built for an American Kestrel but was hung in my backyard and used by a Great Crested Flycatcher pair. Unfortunately, just before the eggs were to hatch, the female disappeared. The male continued to search for her, but she never returned. Perhaps she fell victim to a predator??
