Ungrateful Birds

So here is the deal. For a number of years, the birds have built a nest on one end of the porch and Mr. Black Snake has attacked that location. I have tried several snake deterrents over the years. A nest was build there this year but the builders abandoned it. And then a nest was build at the opposite end and eggs were laid and the Momma Bird sits on the eggs. Here you see some of the eggs in the nest and then a shot from far away of Mom sitting on the eggs. I hope Mr. Black Snake doesn't attack this nest.
