Japanese Maple Cottage Birdhouse

Description

The Japanese maple is a popular ornamental tree prized for its leaves, which come in a variety of shapes and colors depending on the cultivar. The leaf’s color can also change with the seasons, moving from bright spring hues to intense fall foliage. In Japanese culture, the maple leaf (momiji) is a symbol of peace, renewal, and the fleeting nature of life. A removable back wall, drainage, ventilation, an unpainted interior and a 1 1/4 hole size will invite nesting birds in and keep larger ones out. Topped with western red cedar shingles. The finish is an outdoor water-based non-toxic paint. Likely inhabitants may include chickadees nuthatches wrens and titmice. The convenient swing-up paddle-board attached to the back makes hanging this beautiful birdhouse as easy as turning into the wind! Item dimensions 8.25″ H x 6.5″ L x 9.5″ W
