Home Is Where the Heart Is
Home is where the heart is, and that is no different for a bird. Some make homes in trees, others in roof tops, some in decorative birdhouses, and others on a buoy in the harbor. The truth is, birds will nest anywhere that it is safe. Just like people want to find a safe place to have a family, birds want to make sure where they build their nest is not at high risk for predators.
For this reason, birdhouses are great. Especially when placed in the right location, birdhouses are four walls and a roof to ward off hungry animals and dangerous weather. And unlike their feathered exteriors, birds are not feather-brained. When it comes to finding the best place to nest, they look at everything. Instinctually, birds know not to build a nest too low to the ground. Keep a home great for a bird, and you will always find them in your yard.
