Birds nest in AC

I finally got around to looking under the shroud of my main AC after the RV has been sitting for over two years with a small hole in the shroud. There was a full birds nest in there with a couple of dead eggs and a dead bird.

Thanks to DW for cleaning it - I'm too heavy for the roof.

I was going to screw a wire cloth screen but the shroud plastic is so brittle it broke where I was drilling my first hole. I taped it up and she reinstalled it. I didn't want to cover any vent holes but that's better than another bird getting in.

I did a quick search and the one place I found with a replacement shroud wants $500 for it. WOW! Maybe there's an RV junkyard with one off a wreck.
