Expensive bird house?

Working on the truck this weekend putting in some drop springs and I noticed some weeds of some kind poking out around the passenger front wheel, so I popped the hood and found this...






Maybe I dont drive it enough?

Yep, Only 550 miles on the ticker and going into the bodyshop tomorrow to repair the hail damage...and to get a ******* hard cover.

Funny thing about the bird nest, I saw this about a week ago and cleaaned it all out, went to work on it this weekend and blam they almost had it done. So I cleaned it out again, checked it today and they started back up again... gotta say those stupid birds are pretty hell bent on building the nest in my truck, you would think they would have gotten the message by now.
