Strange Brown Pebble Like Things in Bluebird Nest

We put up our first blue bird house this spring and by May we had a beautiful family making their nest.
It was so exciting watching them, mostly the female, diligently building their little home.
The eggs were laid and we watched the adults soar into the hole to feed the babies and clean out the nest.
The precision in which they fly into the box is incredible! We spent hours watching them.
We kept a great supply of food out for them; suet and mealworms, and watched them for hours.
We watched them every day for weeks throughout the entire process until they became like family to us. Then they were gone!
We went out to clean the box and noticed about six or seven small, round, light brown pebble-looking things in there.

A little bit of poop residue and nothing else.
Our neighbor also had the same things in her box after they left. Does anyone have any idea what it is?
