nesting in our yard!!

today, I found out that there are some starling that are nesting in a crack in between our porch roof and our house roof, (that tells how old this house is) they did the same thing last year, it is all ways fun (no matter what bird it is) to watch them nest. There are a lot of people that think starlings are pests, but I think all birds should be able to nest, and are fun.

I encourage you to build or buy a bird house and put it up, not just to help the bird, but to be something fun for you to watch! it is very fun, I promise you.

the best place to put a bird house is in trees where you see the birds most often, don't get worried if the birds have a Lot of competition, because they will, if there is to much, then just put up another bird house! trees, bushes, fences with bushes around it, these are all good places to put up a bird house. if you don't know how big a bird house should be, then buy a birdhouse book to help, or just by a birdhouse, I would get the book, because then you can build birdhouses whenever you want, I recommend the stokes birdhouse book, click here. well... just an encouragement to get some bird houses up!
