Well, here's my nest. A good double handful of dryer lint, leaves, and acorn shells. It clogged my shop vac instantly. Had to dig in with my hands and then vacuum up the leftover bits.
And yes, I did find the pieces of that windshield washer nozzle.
And also found a whole vanilla wafer on top of the passenger side exhaust manifold heat shield. How that didn't catch fire I'll never know.
