chickadee nest question

teri2
14 years ago

For fun last year, I bought a birdhouse shaped and painted to look like a cat's face - complete with whiskers. I never dreamed that a bird would actually nest in it. Well, somebody did! I found the nest late last fall but I don't actually know if it was used. I'm assuming Carolina chickadees because I have lots of them at my feeder, because the entry hole is about 1 1/4" and because I often noticed them flying from the feeder to the area of the birdhouse.

At last to my question! Will they reuse the nest this year or should I clean it out so they can build from scratch?
