Hello Bird Friend, Superb work done for our Winged Friends. However, a little advice; - Drill ventilation holes at the bottom at the four cardinal corners and one in the center to avoid humidity and mold which could decimate a partial or total nesting. - For a single sloping roof, always leave an offset on each side of the nest, in case of rain and wind the sides will not rot. - Linseed oil heated in a bain-marie for exterior protection to be repeated each year, the interior remains natural, doing nothing. Good continuation to you the Friend, Sincerely Alain from Belgium.

@@Backyardprojectguy, Hello my friend, Yes linseed oil is a natural product and once on the wood it protects well, obviously to redo the operation every year, I have been using the nest for 10 years, but for the spring of 2024 a new nest will be put in in place, for the mesh screen you are not afraid that the birds will take the middle fingers and nails in the holes?.

good video, I always left my bird house looking natural, birds not always used them wright away or took a year or so , I did a corner 3 post 90% in front of my house 2 end poles were 10 ' so 7 ' above ground so decided to put bird house on them instead of cutting them the posts were bright yellow so painted the bird houses red just to look nice the very next day had swallows in them. I did some research and found out that birds do like bright colored houses. Having such good luck I am going to put a lot more up, Have 3 acres so will have fun with them, and hope to keep the bugs down.

For the wrens I would go with one inch and half
@davidburgess7413 жыл бұрын
Yes, I built one of those. Bore hole before assembly. Made of 1x2s and 1x4s that fell into my lap. 3 inch screws made this into 1x6 nominal. The hole saw hit one of these and lost all its teeth! Chiseled out the rest and de- stroyed the front. Fix was to use a 1x4 with a properly bored hole with a circle cutter. Left very long it allowed the use of used Harbor Freight instant garage poles. Drill the screw holes straight through the 1x4 at 2 points and put the pole behind that. That keeps bigger birds from attacking through the hole and pecking due to the double thickness. Well, we'll see.

Great stuff. Thanks. As you point out, you don’t necessarily need a bench saw or circular saw. A couple of additional points: - some people (me included, with some boxes) add a perching pole on the outside just below the hole. It makes it easier for the parent birds to feed the young. However, it can make the occupants vulnerable to predator birds if the hole is too big - if the box is on a house wall, you may need to consider the roof direction, if you need to minimise the risk of water ingress.

I agree - except for the perch. The birds do not need them in any way - they can feed the young just as good without a perch. So skip it!
