It should be an assembly of parts screwed together. If you can't put it back together, buy a new light and put the nest materials into a different container somewhere else where you can steal their honey every autumn. 😈

It's actually an antique from the hayday at Gas Light Square in St.Louis. We called a local bee society to see if they would come and get them but they said they couldn't move an established hive. I don't like honey, or any sweets actually, so no great loss. I don't mow the grass, so they don't bother me.;)

I was finally able to catch a pic of dad at the bird bath.

The babies have fledged, my wife and I got see two leave the nest yesterday. There was one in the nest early this morning and fledged while I was on my walk. Mom and Dad are still coming to the feeder and taking it to the babies up in the trees.
