Create a charming avian neighborhood in your garden using the Home Bazaar Red Novelty Cottage Bird House. Evoking seaside homes along the New England coast, this vivid roost will certainly welcome any bird family. The pitched, pine shingled roof features a faux dormer, and protects the 1.25" diameter entry hole on one side. A closed circle on the other side brings symmetry to the piece. The picket-style railing on the top and base of the item create the illusion of a dual level, offering birds a deep roost for safety. White trim on the faux windows and doors complete the architectural hints. A flat panel on the back of the home removes easily for nest checks, while drainage holes on the base help the nest remain dry. A piece of screening beneath the entry hole acts as a ladder, assisting fledglings in reaching the exit. Use the attached hanging tab to place this home on a post, fence, wall, or other vertical surface. The hardwood body will withstand use for several seasons, while the red color will enliven your garden. Bring working architecture into your bird sanctuary with this Red Novelty Cottage Bird House.

Note: Should you wish to preserve the finish (paint) on this home, you should select a polyurethane product that is recommended for marine use (UV rated) that will not turn the white paint yellow. You should expect that once left outdoors, the product will weather and require refinishing.
