Never seen one of these guys on the tower before. Let alone a nest. I wasn’t up there long. Don’t think I disturbed them too much. One of them eventually sat on the nest till I climbed down.

      Yes. They were about 140’ (46m) up.

    This is an awesome find. I was going to post an Eastern kingbird too lol. I’ll give mine a few days. Thanks for sharing. I love those nest shots.

    Could be a bit of warmth coming from those cables, too, clever nesting mama.

      The radios give off a lot of heat, but not the coax. The whole tower will get covered in ice, in the winter. But any working radios will still be dry and warm.
