Porcupine Egg Nest

Found a porcupine egg nest in the woods today. This is last year's nest so the eggs have already hatched. In the Northwood's colder climate porcupines often resort to communal nests which are easier to keep warm because of the combined mass.  It was pretty neat to find this nest since I've only read about them and never actually seen one and, as everyone knows, ... you can't believe everything you read on the Internet.
Happy April Fools Day.

Okay, I have to admit, you actually had me scratching my head for a second. Ha!
Good one.
