Welcome to the Real Bird Homes' Beginning Birdhouse Course.
You probably know what kind of birdhouses people
like. You are now about to learn what kind of birdhouse birds need.
Birds are beautiful,
elegant, and extremely fragile. Because of their fragile
nature, they are constantly at risk of injury or death from severe
weather, many kinds of poisons, and hundreds of animals that rely on
them for food. It's easy to be unaware of how fragile and short life
is for birds. Compared to the solid mass of our bodies, these
wonderful creatures are only whispers.
Unfortunately, most people
can't conceive just how fragile and precarious a bird's life is.
That is why almost all bird houses are inadequate. All too
often they become death traps to the unsuspecting bird that chooses a hole
in a bird house instead of a woodpecker hole in a smooth dead barren tree
thirty feet above most predators and with a 'roof' of one or more feet
thick between the occupants and the hot sun above.
If you are truly concerned
about helping these beautiful creatures, please take the time to study
this web site.
And, if you do, you will see why The Chalet by
Real Bird Homes.Com not only attracts so many birds, but why the birds
that use them are so successful at raising their families.
