House Wren cleaning out box

I packed this nestbox with wood shavings because I had seen a Downy in there, possibly staking out a roosting spot. It is said that packing a box with wood shavings makes them feel like they are excavating. But a House Wren came instead and started cleaning up. I was amazed to see the speed with which it is working here. The box is a Troyer slotted style nestbox that is equipped with a Wyze camera for monitoring.
