Before you begin building, research the variety of birds known to migrate to your area. Be aware of the bird house size and location that will meet the birds need.
Once you are aware of the types of bird in your area, you can look for bird house plans that will meet their needs. The most common wood used for building bird houses is cedar. Cedar makes an excellent material to use, it doesn't need to be treated, stained, or painted. Always try to avoid painting, especially around the entrance hole.
