Looncam 1 Nest Failure Exam

After both loon eggs crushed, the loon cam operator and LPC Biologist, John Coolie, visited the nest to examine the remains. This 22 minute video is unedited and provides interesting information about the nest and loons in general.

Why would the workers put muscle or clam shells in a nest? Do you ever see a bird put hard objects in a nest? A nest should be soft for the eggs.

[@loonychick1415]

They didn't put them there. Likely the muskrat that sometimes gets on the nest.
