Nest Intruder
Took this shot when I got to the tree. The white bird poop streak under the opening indicates this was indeed an active nest up until recently. Rains a few days prior would have washed it away. So I guess I am looking at a well fed snake. This is normal behavior for rat snakes. Circle of life.
