Overnight, the nest was raided by a Northern Raccoon, Striped Skunk, American Mink, Red Fox, or another predator. Approximately 22 egg shells were found outside the "nest", with about 5 eggs remaining deep in the hole. We covered up the hole, with the hope that these remaining eggs will continue to develop.
