They use spider webs to keep their nests(golf ball size)together. Their eggs are the size of a jelly bean/tic-tac.
This is the link for the cam,
You will really enjoy it.

Even though I don't see to many of them around here I might try my feeder again and see what happens. I've saved to many birds around here from neighbor cats but I'm sure cats can't catch them little guys. :thumbup:
