Gourd Birdhouses

in gourds •  8 years ago 

Check out some of my handy work. This is what I do to relax. The holes are 1" 1/8" hole saw drilled. They are specifically made to accommodate House Wrens. The Peacock is not completed yet. Call it a work in progress.

These are beautiful! What lucky house wrens! We have a few decorated gourds, too. And although I've put them out for the birds nobody has ever made a nest in my gourd-houses... except for a red wasp that one time... Now I grow spider plants in them. I hope your birds appreciate a good thing when they see it (unlike mine) and the project brings you much relaxation!

Nice to meet another gourd person! Thank you. I haven't had any nesters yet but hoping to. If all else fails, I'l probably end up with plants in them and that's ok too.
