Here are some extracts from the ebook "How to Build Your Birdhouses"
|
| |
Man is destroying increasing amounts of our planet’s birds’ natural habitat And building more
concrete jungles.
Birdhouses are the best alternatives to natural features for providing nesting spaces for
birds. There are many hundreds of bird species in America. Only a small percentage of these
birds can now nest in natural cavities. So, many will welcome the opportunity of nesting in
your birdhouses - especially birds like wrens, bluebirds, chickadees, titmice And even wood
ducks.
Industries pour out ever-greater amounts of various air pollutants. The use of pesticides in
agricultural areas is affecting many different bird species. Many people want to do their bit by
building birdhouses And inviting these winged guests to make their homes in birdhouses.
The chirping And songs of birds help you wake up in a good mood, too.
Building birdhouses does not have to make a major dent in your pocket either. You can get
great enjoyment from building them for your feathered friends.
Birdhouses should have adequate provision for easy cleaning. Cleaning the interiors of the
houses regularly can help you provide safe habitation for the birds.
Making small holes in the roof And floor can allow smooth drainage. It also provides natural
ventilation to birds. Use your imagination And creativity to make the birdhouses look more
attractive. Iron poles And sheets can provide protection to birds from their enemies. You can
suspend birdhouses from wires but you must use some method to keep them out of the
jumping range of squirrels And cats.
How Many Birdhouses Should You Have?
If you are an enthusiastic bird-watcher, you will love to hang many birdhouses in your
backyard And garden. However, birds may not share your enthusiasm. Specific species of
birds have their own preferences when choosing their birdhouses.
Bluebirds, Purple martins, And Tree swallows love the company of other birds near their
birdhouses. Purple martins love nesting near your home. They also love having birdbaths,
streams or ponds close by. These birds usually nest in colonies And therefore require many
birdhouses to accommodate their huge families.
Chickadees And bluebirds prefer open spaces with fields And trees spread over an area of
two to five acres. Flycatchers And American kestrels love nesting in birdhouses on the edge
of forested areas. Finches, however, love nesting near your home.
Nuthatches accept birdhouses in forested or open areas but spread across twenty to fifty
acres. Titmice require around two to five acres of open or forested land around their
birdhouses.
So, the number of birdhouses you should put on your backyard or garden depends more on
the type of habitat surrounding your home. Open areas attract some species of birds while
dense forested areas in the vicinity attract different species. If you have a mixture of habitats
surrounding your house, you can expect a wide variety of birds to take up a home in the
many birdhouses you could spread across the landscape.

engraved invitations to the right birds. And as any guest, they will welcome your hospitality.

not only personally rewarding but is also environmentally sound.

Fortunately, everything you need to know to develop this hobby is available in "How to Build

birdhouse that it will use? Tree swallows, wrens, And bluebirds prefer single unit, enclosed
birdhouses.

prefer nesting in boxes close to shrubs. Phoebes And robins like a sheltered platform, rather
than closed nest boxes.
