It is made especially in the size that great tits like. The size of the nest hole is 2.8cm, and the height from the bottom is 15cm. Sparrows will enter and ruin the nest, preventing the chicks from hatching. ☆ Small gaps are made in the four corners of the bottom of the birdhouse to allow water to drain. If the drainage is poor, mold will grow and the chicks' living environment will deteriorate. ☆ Screws are used to fix the cedar boards because nails will gradually come loose. The bottom board is fixed by driving screws horizontally, so it's safe. ☆ A string can be passed through the four holes at the top and bottom of the backboard to attach it to a standing tree. At my house, I use stainless steel wire for fixing, prioritizing durability. ☆ You can also attach string-through hardware to the backboard, but I don't recommend it. There is a risk that the entire birdhouse will fall if the screw threads are short. (◉＾◡＾◉) To all bird lovers (◉＾◡＾◉) The photos from 7 to 9 show a great tit laying eggs in a birdhouse that was hung on the pillars of my house's carport. I secretly observed when the parent birds were out. The entire roof opens, making it easy to observe, but... be very careful! If a great tit finds a birdhouse and likes it, they will start building a nest as a pair. They will neatly lay moss and animal hair, and when it's finished, they will lay eggs. When the chicks are born, they diligently carry food, and the parent birds will take the chicks' droppings in their beaks and throw them outside, so the inside of the birdhouse is kept clean until the chicks leave the nest. The birdhouse can be used every year. Why not try hanging a great tit birdhouse? Of course, it can also be used as an accent in your garden.
