Found the nest about 15 feet up in a Saguaro Cactus. I have been watching it for a while waiting for the eggs to hatch. Parents started feeding young a few days ago. One parent arrives every 4-5 minutes, looks around, quickly ducks into the hole, usually stays about 15-20 seconds, sticks it's head out for a quick look around and explodes out of the hole and disappears.
