This place is for the BIRDS ....

Hana asked me about one of the bird houses in one of my blog entries and so I thought I would show you all of the bird houses my Mother has set up at my house. Isn't she nuts?






This is probably her favorite one. It looks like a church.


Birds nest in this one every year.



This is her newest one. It really would be a nice place for the birds to nest because it has a real opening, but I don't think the birdswill like it here on this table.




This is the one Hana asked about. Somebody made it, but my Mom didn't.




My Mom and Dad and the kids that used to live here went on a vacation to Williamsburg, Virginia once and bought this bird house. It is a replica of one they used to make a long time ago. Birds nest in this one every year too.





This one was a gift from a little boy and girl at my Mom's old job. It is new and we'll have to wait and see if the birds like it.


Last year a cardinal built a nest in the climbing rose bush on the front porch. This year a robin built a nest in the rose bush. Mom can tell it's a robin because the eggs are blue.
Like I said, this place is for the birds!

Wowie Zowie, that's a lot of bird houses for the birds! My mom likes the ceramicy blue one the bestest, but they are all pretty. Does your mom have to clean the outside (and inside) of the houses each year? Hmmmm, I hope you have a lot of dog houses, Copper... at least 6 to be fair, just like the birds.

Hey, my verification word is yowll! That is almost a word, isn't it?

So many bird houses! Are you quiet around the birds or do you bark at them? Mom thinks we would bark at them since we bark at just about anything that moves.

Yes Hana, my Mom does have to clean them out sometimes. And I only have one doghouse, and I don't like it, so I don't need that one.

Roxie, Sammy and Andy ... I bark at the birds every chance I get. I love to bark. It's my job to bark.

That's interesting. So how long do the birds stay in those houses?
