Build Your Own Backyard Birdhouses and Feeders
Build Your Own Backyard Birdhouses and Feeders is a practical guide for making nesting boxes and feeders that birds will actually use. This digital PDF edition includes clear plans for a range of backyard species. It is available as an instant download after purchase.
Edited by Ken Beck and first published in 2011 by Cool Springs Press, the book focuses on simple, sound structures rather than decorative extras. It explains why careful placement and species-specific design matter for attracting birds.
