One of the parents was running around the drain making a bunch of noise, went to investigate and found the baby trapped inside. I fished it out with a hair net wrapped around a coat hanger that I taped to a broom handle.

This picture was taken in front of a suburban elementary school. I feel terrible for her because I think she chose her nesting spot when covid lockdown was in effect and now she is stuck with tons of children running by twice a day. Literally 2 meters away from her. Will give her credit where credit is due that she sticks it out and doesn't leave her nest.
(Don't worry, she's roped off and they make regular announcements to use as reminders for everyone to look out for her.)
Looks like some of the kids built her a nice protective ring of rocks around the nest?
It was a pre-existing "rock garden" they made in 2019.
