Sounds like taking a pic might be hard if it's inside your boathouse.

Try walking in the boathouse with another person. The bird flies out, then let your other person walk out and shut the door. Birds can't count all that well, so maybe if you very sit still in there with camera at ready, you can get a pic when she flies back in. You might have to sit there for a while but if you walk in when you know the bird is in there she is likely to fly back soon, esp if she has just flown in with food in her mouth.

Taking pictures of birds is hard. The other day I was trying to take some of 3 hawks fending off crows in the sky over one of my listings and I couldn't get a single pic that looked decent. I was hiding under a screened in porch and had a hawk call that I was blasting at them in one had, camera in the other. If someone walked up on me they would have tought I was nuts, but I thought it would be cool for the listing.

Maybe if you at least took pics of the nest and eggs you can post them on this site and link to it, we could all take our guesses.
