Not all birds like birdhouses, but rather prefer a more open concept feel for their lovely nesting areas.  Mourning Doves, Blue Jays, Robins, and Cardinals like nesting boxes or shelves just like this one!  This design allows for easy cleanout with a bottom slide out and assists in keeping nesting materials a little more secure from wind and the elements.  Your larger birds will love you for getting them one of their very own!  For preferred mounting and care instructions please see our FAQ page.
