    How would you customize your bird house and for what kind of bird?

    I have 5 bird houses in our garden right now, one of them is painted to look like a British Post box (the red ones most see in London) the others are just brown and I made a double one, a friend bought me a red one with feeding table underneath with a saying painted on it, “cats are stupid”
    Have a great weekend

      I like the idea of adding saying to the bird houses.

    Great bird house for a flower meadow.

    I am getting back into woodworking as a hobby. Simple projects are perfect for me to get back into it. Thank you.

    Great job Winnie. There are so many types of birds in my area. This time of year the Purple Martins are so much fun to watch. I had two chasing me today while I was mowing. As I was kicking up the bugs with my mower they were diving and catching the bugs. They are so graceful in flight.

      Gotta love the birds that eat all the bugs! Especially if they eat mosquitos 🦟 ! It is nice to see them all flying around, such grace and peace. Thanks for watching :)

    Winnie, that's a lot of shop for bird houses! Great to see you putting out videos again. I need to make a few of these over the summer. I have some yellow finches that made a home this spring on a piece of siding that was knocked loose during a storm. Having them around is really nice, but I can't fix the siding until fall!

      That is very true 😂 but in all seriousness I needed a project to get me back in swing of things and I have several acres of meadow now that needed some bird houses so it was a win win.

    Winnie, today I stepped out onto my porch and the thought struck me that "this is going to be a beautiful day!" So watching video's like yours building things that are going outdoors just puts icing on the cake. I built a bunch of birdhouses including some that look amazingly close to yours and people kept hassling me about missing a perch. I finally bent to the pressure and added one so just beware what may be coming your way. As always I really enjoyed your builds, your video and your smile. 🙃🙂Thanks for Sharing!

    • @jeffp5991

      I saw someone say not to make a perch because it could attract predators. I'm not a bird expert, so I don't know if that's true or not.

      Thanks for the heads up! I love this time of year where you can work with the shop doors open, and agree that making things for outside to enjoy just makes it so much more awesome.

    This looks like a great simple project. We have many song birds in our area and I need to figure out if they prefer a different style of house. Thanks for the video!!!
