Wild About Wild Life

This sounds like a real fun event that all birds may take part in. It is called TGB’s Birdhouse Competition. You can register on line if you think you have the coolest birdhouse around that is sure to win! You never know, Go For It!!!!

Here are some of the characteristics of the group listed below.

For the birds is a juried Design Competition and Summer Showcase exhibition that culminates with the Flocktail Party awards celebration at Toronto Botanical Garden, and you are cordially invited to be part of it.
This TBG event puts the fun back into fundraiser, and also
• Highlights the plight of songbirds due to environmental degradation
• Encourages wildlife preservation, ecological awareness and sustainability
• Informs TBG visitors about the principles of bird nesting, habitat and support
• Underscores the TBG’s ongoing mandate to promote environmental awareness through education
The birdhouse Design Competition of For the birds is a showcase of soaring creativity. For inspiration, take a look at last year’s entries. Then let your imagination fly!

Happy Bird – House – ing!!!   

~ The Birdhouse Guy ~

The Holiday Season is here and maybe you don’t know what to get that “hard to buy for” individual who has everything. Decorative birdhouses are a very unique idea

and easy to install. When you choose a decorative birdhouse, keep in mind the character and personality of the person you are buying for.

Maybe someone really likes to go camping, then maybe a 5th Wheel~style, decorative birdhouse would suit them. Maybe there is a great aunt who is the “Victorian” type, then a decorative victorian ~ style bird house would suit her. I’m sure you have a John Deere Lovin’ dad, brother , or uncle that would love a “Tractor ~ style” birdhouse in their yard, colored in green and yellow.

So this holiday season, consider a decorative birdhouse. Now is the time to set out your birdhouses, as they will be in the yard come Spring. This gives your local feathered friends time to recognize and consider inhabiting the birdhouse in your yard to raise and family and birth their young.

Merry Christmas from the Birdhouse Guy!
