Know before you buy
The 1.125-inch entry hole is specifically sized for small songbirds such as wrens and chickadees. It is too small for larger, more aggressive birds to enter.
The back panel is fully removable, allowing you to easily clear out old nesting materials and debris. We recommend cleaning the interior once the birds have vacated the nest to maintain a healthy environment.
Yes, the house is versatile and can be hung from a tree or wall. If you prefer a pole mount, it can be attached using an optional mounting plate.
The birdhouse is built for outdoor use, though the exterior will naturally weather and develop a charming, aged patina over time. The faux rosemary blooms are designed to withstand typical garden conditions.
The ladder is a helpful feature for fledglings. It provides a grip for young birds to climb up to the entry hole when they are ready to leave the nest for the first time.
