Chickadee House

Geff made his mom a chickadee birdhouse for Christmas.  He makes all kinds of birdhouses according to the species he is trying to attract. 

If  you are interesting in making birdhouses, the Audubon Birdhouse book is an excellent resource.

He adds pennies to the entrance to discourage other birds/animals from disturbing it.  Seems to work well and it’s cute too.


Here’s some baby chickadees in the same house design last spring.
