Wooden bird houses will add a touch of charm to any backyard bird habitat. But more importantly, these wood bird houses partially replace the loss of natural breeding sites for cavity nesting birds.

More than 50 species of North American breeding birds select or construct their nest in a cavity. Some cavity-nesters, like the Hairy Woodpecker, create a hole in a dead or dying tree, called a "snag". Other cavity-nesters, like bluebirds, are more opportunistic; they use abandoned holes or naturally created cavities in trees. Unfortunately, since most of us prefer not to have dead or dying trees in our yards, there has been a reduction in suitable nesting sites for cavity nesters. The result has been a decline in the population of many of these species.

We offer a large selection of functional bird houses called nest boxes. Nest boxes are built for function rather than eye appeal. More importantly, entrance holes are designed to attract and protect specific bird species. These wooden bird houses are typically plain looking and unpainted, yet are naturally beautiful.

We also carry a line of beautiful and decorative bird houses. These fancy bird houses are detailed pieces of art. Their designs include churches, cottages, cabins, chalets and more. Each crafted bird house has detailed molding, windows, cedar shingles, front porches and gorgeous colors. These decorative bird houses are attractive enough to be displayed in your home and built strong enough to withstand the harshest of weather conditions. They are also built to be fully functional bird houses.
