Description
Woodpecker Nesting Box will encourage one of our newest breeding species to nest near you. This fascinating species only colonised the island of Ireland about 20 years ago and is thought to be sustained by winter bird feeding in gardens and the availability of suitable nesting opportunities.
This nesting box is specifically designed for woodpeckers. The box has an extra thick, bowl shaped bottom for the eggs and a closed entrance hole that the birds will drill out to open for themselves, just as in nature. In winter the nesting box is ideal for a bird that needs to take shelter from the elements. The side door panel opens up for end of season cleaning. Box should be placed in a secluded place, in a tree with a clear unobstructed flight line; Place N or E facing, at least 4 meters above ground level.
Dimensions: L 18.5 x D 22.5 x H 53.5, approx.
