Make An Easy Coffee Can Bird House
When it comes to birds, avid watchers know that you can never
have too many bird houses in your yard. Birds appreciate these
items during the nesting and migration seasons, which can just
about cover the entire year in some areas. So, if you are trying
to attract birds to your yard, you should certainly create a
place that is inviting and appealing to them. They will reward
you with their presence and you can enjoy gazing at some of the
most beautiful items nature has to offer. If you are interested
in bird houses, you may want to consider making your own. You
can create interesting bird houses in no time, using simple
household items. Use these tips to create an easy coffee can
bird house.
To begin you will need to collect an empty coffee can, super
glue, paint, a small wooden peg, fishing line, a permanent
marker, and a utility knife. Begin by washing the coffee can
with soap and water. Be sure to rinse it well. If there is much
residue in the can, birds will not want to stay in it. Dry the
can and replace its lid. Next, trace a circle onto one side of
the can, near the bottom. This will be the entrance for the
birds. The circle will need to be large enough for birds to
enter, but not too large. Some birds prefer the entrances to be
smaller because it allows them safety from larger preying birds.
After tracing the hole, use the utility knife to carefully cut
the entrance for the birds. Next, glue the wooden peg just
below
the entrance. This will be a great place for birds to perch,
especially if a bird has babies inside and is trying to feed
them. Be sure to allow enough area for the entrance however as
well. After the glue dries completely, you can move on to
decorating your home. Using paint or anything else you would
like, you can make this type of bird house into anything you
would like. Be sure to remove the label if you haven't already
done so. You can paint the can to honor your favorite football
team or paint lovely flowers on the side to match your garden.
The possibilities are unlimited. This is a great time to get
little ones involved as well. Children love to help with crafts
and painting a bird house is one that children of all ages can
participate in.
After the paint and decorations dry, you can poke a small hole
in the back of the can and loop your fishing line through. This
will allow you to hang the house on a tree. You can also choose
to bolt the house to the tree. To do this, remove the coffee
can's lid and place the bolt through the inside back of the can.
This simple craft is a wonderful way to attract birds to your
yard for you and your family to enjoy all year long.
