it was a nest in a tree? was this a wood duck? i don't know how wood duck eggs compare to mallard eggs. i assume a little smaller.probably a rat snake, then. maybe a four-footish rat snake could get down some wood duck eggs. maybe smaller if the eggs are smaller than i'm imagining. so not too far off. people always overestimate snake lengths though. you're rare in underestimating.
I don't think it was a wood duck... I think it was a mallard. But after looking I don't think mallards nest in trees. So I have no idea

So I have no ideamallards nest on the ground. female wood ducks aren't so splashy like the males. one could have tricked you into thinking it was a mallard. could also have been a sparrow.

Sys- I had a guy who said he could identify snakes check out the pic and he said it was a diamond-backed water snake. Which is an aggressive but non venomous snake
