Wren/Chickadee Birdhouses

      Wrens and chickadees are tiny birds which have special needs for nesting locations. They are cavity nesters that are very vulnerable to being injured or killed by larger bird.  Ideal wren or chickadee birdhouses have certain characteristics that can help protect them from predators and allow them to breed and survive.  Wren and chickadee birdhouses are usually identified by their small nesting holes that are about an inch in diameter. If the nesting hole is much larger, bigger birds can take over their nests or steal their eggs.  The best wren or chickadee birdhouses have sloped roofs that shade the nesting hole.  This allows the smaller birds a point of entry that cannot be invaded by larger birds.
