Know before you buy
The 1.25-inch entry hole is specifically sized for small songbirds such as wrens, chickadees, and nuthatches. It is generally too small for larger birds like starlings or house sparrows.
The back panel is designed to be removable, providing easy access to the interior. We recommend cleaning out old nesting material once the birds have vacated to keep the space sanitary for future residents.
Yes, the interior features integrated screening that acts as a ladder. This allows young birds to grip the walls and climb up to the entry hole when they are ready to leave the nest.
The base includes drainage holes to prevent water from pooling inside, and the roof overhang provides ventilation gaps to keep the interior dry. While it is made of wood and designed to weather naturally, these features help protect the nest from the elements.
Yes, the birdhouse includes a sturdy hanging tab on the back. This allows you to mount it securely to a flat surface, such as a garden post, fence, or exterior wall.
