In the past, bluebirds relied on woodpeckers and other cavity-dwellers to provide the vast majority of their nesting places. They would pick cavities in fence places that are rotten or trees that are dead to elevate their families. As development wiped out many of those natural nesting sites, the population declined dramatically. But boxes have played a role in reviving the beloved bluebird. They have prerequisites, therefore these DIY birdhouse programs are designed to meet their needs.

The North American Bluebird Society, that provided the plans, says parkways with minimal human visitors, cemeteries, golf courses and rural places are great places to mount those boxes. Only drive a piece of conduit and attach the house 5 ft above the ground with conduit straps as shown in right. Attach a predator guard and coating the pipe with grease to discourage nest raiders.
This bluebird box includes a few interesting features worth pointing out. It is constructed with all the side of this timber facing out so that it resembles the birds’ nesting sites. And there is no perch. Notches beneath the entrance hole supply footing for bluebirds, but discourage visits and wrens.

The swing-open facet is suitable, too. You can check for nests of unwanted birds (since house sparrows and European starlings aren’t protected by law, just remove their houses) and have easy access for cleaning from the bluebird’s nesting substances after the young have fledged. You will want to do this immediately, because bluebirds raise as many as three broods in one season.

Best of all, the swing-open side will give you an opportunity to glimpse in to the nestlings for whom you have provided a sturdy and secure home. The side door is very good for tracking the activity.
