Description
The SCHWEGLER Nest Box 2H is specially designed for birds that prefer an open, balcony style entrance, such as the Black Redstart, Pied Wagtail, and Grey Spotted Flycatcher. The open fronted design allows easy access for these species, while the predator proof construction makes it safer for nestlings from threats like small mammals and larger birds.
Birds that nest in open areas are often at risk from predators due to the exposed nature of their nests. This nest box is built to counteract this, with a side angled entrance that makes it harder for predators to reach the nest. This design has been trusted for decades in providing a safe environment for cavity nesting birds.
Ideal for: Black Redstarts, Pied Wagtails, Grey Spotted Flycatchers, Robins and Wrens
Features:
- The side-angled entrance and sturdy wood-concrete material help protect nestlings from predators.
