: Rob et al- Just talked to a friend who's knowledgeable about birds, who said
: he didn't think the wood would repel birds, as they don't have much of an
: olfactory sense. Plus, over time, the smell will dissipate. Found a bunch
: of cedar birdhouses on the web, too.Add to that I've just about finished
: it, might as well give it a shot.-Greg

Good luck! Hope they love'm. Fun to watch the little buggers.

If they don't have much of a smeller how in the heck do they find the bird feeders we put out?
Sure, once there are birds coming to your feeder others probably see'em, but how does the first guy find it, that's what I'd like to know.

I saw a great idea to keep off predators, slide a long section of PVC pipe
over the pole. Too slick to grip.

Dam work is getting in my way of building my bluebird houses.
