I have al ist of projects as long as my arm right now. Unfortunately, the bathouses are the only one directly related to wildlife. I'll have to shoehorn another one in there. Something simple like bee houses or such.

Swallows Everywhere We were not really into birding then, but the vast numbers amazed us. We suspect they were a mix of Barn and Tree Swallows. We have an unused three sided "shed" and after nesting season last year, we went back there and saw three Barn Swallow nests. They always try to build a nest above our front door. Every year, but with our activity in and around the house, they don't succeed. We even try to avoid using that door, but they must hear the racket a family of six makes inside and do not stay. Last year a male House Wren tried making a nest in it after it was abandoned. Last edited by TheLorax; 04-06-2012 at 02:33 PM. Reason: addition of photo |
