Country Home Birdhouse

Made by a Washington Crafter.

Built to Audubon Society recommended specifications, this birdhouse has a Country Home appearance, including a front & side porches, handrails, simulated windows and door, cedar shake roofs. This birdhouse Country Home comes plumbed with three drains and three natural air conditioners (vents), one directly across from the bird entrance hole and one on each side under the roof 1/2" wide by 5" long. It is insulated with 7/8" cedar. Like all our birdhouses it has a raised nesting floor to prevent the potential of water seeping in under the house into the nesting area. By removing three screws on the bottom you can take the bird house off for a complete spring cleaning. The porches provides shelter in three directions for fatherbird when motherbird is on the nest during one of those rainy days.
