This bird house was painted by my 13 year-old daughter, and we've had it up for over 3 years. This is the first that I've seen birds it this one. It's hanging at the edge of our back patio, and the birds don't seem to mind me out there. These birds are so tiny.
I believe these birds are House Wrens. Their song is so beautiful to listen to.

Congrats on your blog award! It's fun to read randomness about our blogging buddies, the stuff we learn! LOL!!
P.S. I really love your blog too! :)
You see a vacant bird house...you move in...pretty simple. Maybe they're leery of new things.
Anyway...it's cute. I like it.

We've had a bird house and nesting box up for quite a few years. The bird house has had tenants almost as soon as we put it up. The nesting box? No one has even looked at it! Maybe some day.
