I have read many examples of the phrase "no doubt". And I have observed that when this phrase is used other negative words like "never, not, nothing" are not used in the sentence like:
No doubt he is the hero of the day.
Am I right?
Or could we say something like:
No doubt not a single bird nest in this tree.
Can we use "no doubt" with other negative words or not?

Using 'no doubt' before a negative is fine, because it simply emphasises the truth of whatever follows.
Looking at your sentence, it could perhaps do with a verb, but otherwise it's fine.
Note that no doubt is generally used to reinforce an opinion or prediction, rather than something that is easily verifiable. Here is a more realistic usage:
