Give wrens, chickadees and other songbirds a beautiful and inviting decorative shelter in your bird garden with this Home Bazaar Welcome Home Cottage Bird House. Luxurious details and coloration lend ample appeal to this neat, white shelter, with a navy blue roof and faux door providing a bold accent for your backyard space as you host feathered friends. Decorative white fencing and columns help guard a front porch area, embellished by a pineapple design throughout the fencing and on the extended awning just above the front door. White casement windows on the front and side add to the flair of this cottage-style abode, creating additional nautical charm, and a pair of steps adds a realistic touch to the home's welcoming front porch. A steeply pitched roof is covered in natural, dark blue wooden shingles, and overhangs the domicile to provide protection from rain and other outdoor elements while amplifying the bold, colorful tone of the house. Situated on one side of the home is a 1.25" diameter entry hole, allowing wrens and chickadees easy access to the cozy interior, while a unique screen ladder inside the shelter provides a helpful boost when birds wish to leave the roost. Ventilation gaps placed below the roof and on the back panel create healthy air movement, ensuring a clean and fresh home for your feathered friends, and the back panel can easily be removed when nest checks and cleanouts are required. Displaying this lovely home is simple, thanks to a mounting paddle with a predrilled hole letting you showcase the home against a wall, tree, or fence. For variable display, affix the decorative house's base to a pole or post with a handy mounting plate (not included). This timeless abode will create a focal point of vintage elegance in your outdoor space, letting your bird hobby flourish while adding eye-catching appeal to your backyard ​décor. Transform your bird garden with stylish, classic, nautical allure using the outstanding Welcome Home Cottage Bird House.

Note: Climate and the elements will weather this home and change its appearance over time; however, weathering will add to the item's natural charm without compromising its function. Should you want to preserve the finish (paint) of this house, you should cover it with several layers of a polyurethane product that is recommended for marine use (UV Rated) that will not turn the white paint yellow. You should expect that once left outside, the item will weather and require refinishing.
