because we all love birds, and I hope that extends to wild birds!

I encourage you to put out a nest box, as many birds are obligated cavity dwellers. But in developed areas there are few options as dead tree are cut down .

Its not to late in the season. Many birds will happily move in and get a family started. I just added 2 new blue bird boxs last week. Both now have nests and eggs! ( will try and get Pic)

I've certified my backyard habit as well as stuck out my sign :)
 
We have 7 attached to the back of our garage that the birds use every year:)

Oh my gosh, they are one of my favourites and I can't remember if I've even seen one up here.
Ours are usually occupied by sparrows.

Chickadee, tufted titmouse, a warbler, and 3 bluebirds nesting in mine. I keep putting them out and I keep getting more burds moving in@ i talked 3 neighbors into putting out nesting boxs they have bluebirds in theirs. Our neighborhood bluebirds bur have really rebounded over the last couple of years. We all love seeing them.

I out out a large one and have greater crested fkycstchers in it for the last 4 years.

I hope more people are inspired!!

One of mine has a green tree frog that lives in it..sometimes I find several tree frogs in it. So I leave it just for them.
