Hi Henry,
I've discovered a chickadee nest on Carroll Hill Rd.
I have seen the bird leave when I am near the mailbox.
I finally got a picture of the chickadee.
The hole is about 4 feet off the ground, about 1 1/2 inch in diameter and about 6-8 inches deep.
There is something in the bottom of the cavity, but I can't get a picture.
This tree is only about 3 steps off the roadway.
