This rustic wood birdhouse is a great addition to any yard, garden , fence or favorite space. The entrance hole is approximately 1.25 inches wide and is perfect for chickadees, wrens, sparrows, titmice, and many other birds.
The wood for this birdhouse was cut from a sassafras tree that came down during a storm on our farm in central New Jersey. The slab wood cuts were used to make the front and roof of this lovely natural birdhouse while the sassafras planks were used for the back, sides and bottom of this birdhouse. The bark was left on the planks to add to the natural look of the wood. The bottom of the birdhouse was drilled with drainage holes and hinged for easy clean out. A sturdy mounting eye is installed on the top of the birdhouse for easy hanging. Two holes are also drilled in the back of the birdhouse if you want to nail the birdhouse to a fence or tree.
The birdhouse is approximately 11 inches high, 9 inches deep (measuring along the roof to the back of the birdhouse) and is about 6 inches wide. Each birdhouse is unique and will vary slightly in size and shape.
