thanks for the picture of the beginning negotiations on the nesting materials. when we had the privledge of watching the nest building process from start to finish - i was told they are supposed to take it down (at least on a housekeeping camp unit) but they did not and when we left they promised to leave it alone until birdies were hatched and flying. we went back each weekend and they kept their word.
