About 70birds

Birding is a favorite hobby of millions of adults and kids. Attracting bird families to birdhouses can be done anywhere. Even cities have large bird populations that live in birdhouses. Invite a bird family with the right birdhouse in the right place.

About Nest Boxes – Birdhouses 

Nest boxes simulate tree cavities.

Many birds that nest in tree cavities will also nest inside wood nest boxes if they are the right size.

Some birds that live on cliffs and rock ledges will nest on wood platforms.

Birds like birdhouses to be in their favorite places.
