Design Changes For Eastern Blue Bird House
I am not trying to make this a perfect bird world,however just want to share my field experience from my backyard,regarding design changes for blue bird houses.
Ventelation is very important,especially on all four conners of the floor.You can either precut the floor first or drill after assembly. Probably quarter inch or alittle larger hole.Remember the nest material will block a portion of the hole.So if you want it to be larger it is okay.
For the floor I added a piece of l/16th inch plywood over the pine to extend the life of the floor. Believe me it works.

Squirrels and Birds Don't Mix
I love to see my birds feed in the early morning,middle of the day and late in the afternoon. They are so peaceful,they protect each other with signals of secret chirps when prediators are approaching.They are so full of family love.
For those squirrels, I try to be nice to them, that is, they are allowed to feed for a very short time. However, when you allow one,then there is two,three,four,five and six.
There is nothing in their behavior to win me over,they are just common thieves with innocent fluffy tails,moving back and forth as if to say,you are a fool to feed us.
I just shutter when there is a display of squirrel food at the bird store.
