Some of these houses even have roof top swimming pools .

I had 4 orders just for this style alone .

The birds in your neighbourhood must be very, very happy.

Thanks Geoff !!
My daughter lives in Robina and she said she saw my birdhouses on the television last night on a show called Animal Planet . It was filmed early last year but it just aired in Australia last night .

Thanks artme !
Most of the summer i was working at my sons house on his cedar deck and gazebo .

This is a before and after pic . The first picture was taken in the spring just after my son bought the house .

nice work

just curious as to what sort of birds these are aimed at ?
I know the appearance is for the humans but what diameter are those holes ?
thanks

Thanks !
I get mostly sparrows in the large houses and purple martins in the smaller ones .
The holes are 1 3/8" - 1 1/2 diameter

I took this short video a few days ago .
