If you're looking for A LOT of options in birdhouses, this book is for you. It gives plans for all sorts of houses and feeders, as well as basic information about the different species' housing needs. There is very little written instruction, just drawings and dimensions. (Two drawbacks: some of the drawings are pretty crowded and take a bit to decipher, and there is no index.) There are very basic plans as well as extremely complex designs. This book is for novice and expert alike. Mostly, it's for bird lovers.

I LOVE this book. It has plans for many bird feeders and houses (especially houses). The plans are will drawn and easy to follow. This book has houses/feeders that can be finished by various skill levels from beginner to pro.

This book is a classic on building birdhouses. I grew up with this book in the 1960's and was very happy to find a replacement on amazon. My only complaint is that this book is out of print.

The designs in this book are accurate and timeless. I have borrowed the library copy from a large consortium of member libraries several times over the past thirty years. They have over 10 million books. This publication has disappeared however from their shelves. I was thrilled to find an almost perfect copy at such a reasonable price.

This is a great book with lots of bird houses for many different skill levels.
