Check out the elegantly groomed sod on the right upper corner with the sun's reflection hitting it.

I posted this mostly for you and Mike, I guess you don’t need to know what’s under the tangle of bamboo? Why the bamboos? Can they act as temps regulators? Can they protect from heat stroke? Can they provide a sense of security? Can they allow females to nest guard without being seen? Can this type of nest be used indoors? Can a female see any safety benefits for her siblings? Is it possible that 2 feet of leaves covered with 3 feet stalk of bamboo branches be 1000s lbs less then dirt? Is it possible that large indo monitors prefers nesting this way then all iv tried before?
I don’t know!!!
what do you think?

i don't know.....thanks for the input though...i would still like to see pictures of the whole cage,that would help....i plan on breaking ground on a new reptile building on thursday to replace a garage i use now...billy

Just wondering, as it looks like she's just buried in there.
