5.0 out of 5 stars Tweet Tweet!, February 27, 2002
This review is from: The Best Birdhouses for Your Backyard (Paperback)
The Best Birdhouses for your Backyard includes thirteen projects. Most of the projects are birdhouses, some are feeders. This is a well put together book with great photographs and instructions. There are even projects to attract butterflies, and bats! (Ick)

The part I like most about this book is that the projects are arranged according to what bird youd like to attract. This makes it easy to build the spring house for your Robins, or the hide away for the purple martin! Also, the designs are made using basic tools.
For all you bird lovers, GET THIS BOOK! It is great!

This review is from: The Best Birdhouses for Your Backyard (Paperback)
This book first explains some of the basic tools, then goes into the houses, how to build them, what you need for lumber and supplies. The book also explains a little about the bird most likely living in the house, when, how many eggs, ect. It also explains where to put the birdhouse for mounting.
This book is excellent for the beginner. Excellent pictures and directions. Well done book. I actually have birds living in some of the houses. Nice to make a "home" for someone, hihi.

First Sentence:
One of my earliest memories is of bird-houses. I grew up out in the country, and spent the better part of my early years wandering around my one-acre yard, a yard with a fence that was made up of old-fashioned wooden posts and cross braces. Read the first page
