Lone Star of Texas!!!

This Bluebird Nest Box is a modified design of the very popular "Peterson Bluebird House". According to data presented by W. H. Davis in the Journal of Field Ornithology in 1996 He revealed that the Eastern Bluebird prefers this style of nest box over the traditional rectangular box. The Bluebirds seem to prefer the oval entrance and slightly smaller floor area of the "Peterson Nest Box". The design of this bluebird house is more difficult to make due to the angled cuts, and is more costly due to the increased material requirements. The appearance of the "Peterson Nest Box" also plays a part in its popularity with the fans of the Bluebird. The over sized roof is weather tight and it's size discourages predators from getting at the young. The sloped front is an aid to the young birds when they are ready to leave the nest. Removing the screw out of the bottom front panel allows the front to swing up for easy end of the season cleaning. This bluebird house is made from Western Red Cedar for maximum durability and is assembled using cedar specific wood screws.
