Without seeing the nest, I'm guessing House Wren, because they tend
to nest in such places.  Or Carolina, if HOWR don't nest where you
are.

A friend (who used to be a BIG part of the Bird Banding Lab at
Patuxent) was forced to duct-tape the rust holes in his pickup
because of wrens nesting in them!
