Birding is a favorite hobby of millions of adults and kids. Invite a bird family with the right birdhouse in the right place.
Attracting bird families to birdhouses can be done anywhere. Even cities have large bird populations that live in birdhouses.
These plans are flexible.
Depending on climate and sun exposure, the top of the front panel (or side panels) can be cut at 90º and 1/2″ or 3/4″ shorter to create a gap under the roof, which provides extra ventilation.
Create you own design using the 4 species dimensions.
Dimension tolerance on a birdhouse, which needs ventilation, is not very critical. Minor measuring or cutting mistakes, gaps, etc. are not always a problem.
Be precise where panels are joined at right angles (90º), the four sides and the floor, where precision is easiest to accomplish. A good fit and fastening there will make for a very sturdy box.
Make bird houses with cedar, pine, or almost any soft wood.
Use rough-cut wood stock so that birds can grip wood surfaces.
Always use corrosion resistant screws and hardware.
A hinged roof or side door provides easy access to the interior.
