Decorative birdhouses provide hours of entertainment to bird lovers and warm and comfortable shelter for the birds that come to visit. This Beach bungalow birdhouse is one of those unique birdhouses that says it all with just one word, RELAX. If you have already chosen your decorative bird houses based on your needs and what type of species you’re hoping to attract the next step is placement.
Every species of bird nests in varying types of locations. If you know what kinds of birds you want to attract you should place your decorative birdhouses in areas where those types of birds live. Unique birdhouses placed on a fence post or tree in a wooded area will attract nuthatches and woodpeckers. Where as decorative birdhouses hung in an open field or large backyard with little vegetation would be comfortable for bluebirds, swallows, and certain types of wrens.
Look your chosen location over paying close attention to the surrounding area. Avoid spots that don’t provide protective cover, even decorative birdhouses on a post in an open field should have trees within flying distance. And, an area too thickly surrounded by vegetation won’t give the birds a clear flight path to and from the wood birdhouses. Different species of birds require very precise heights in order to feel safe enough to nest, so do some research on the exact height distance requirements before hanging your unique birdhouses. If possible, place your decorative birdhouses near a birdfeeder or birdbath so that the birds will have easy access to food and water, helping them feel more at home in your garden décor birdhouses will make them more likely to stay.
