Stop bird nesting in hitch

I built this little addition to keep birds from nesting when I am parked. Painted it red for obvious reasons. Held in place by 2 clamps.

Its just plywood and scrap lumber.

We did similar when full timing due to same issue. Ours installed with some industrial type Velcro stuff.

Plug the hole on the side or the wrens will think it is a bird house.
