Description

The design follows a familiar bluebird box shape with a pitched roof, compact body, and front entrance. It includes a 1 1/2″ entrance hole, a 4″ x 4″ metal entrance guard, side ventilation holes, and bottom drainage holes to help keep the nesting space more comfortable and easier to maintain.

The plans use 1×6 and 1×8 cedar boards with #8 stainless steel screws, making this a manageable woodworking project for a backyard, garden, orchard, or open yard setting. The front panel also includes small interior grooves, giving young birds a better grip when it is time to climb out of the box.

A removable roof gives access to the inside of the birdhouse for seasonal cleaning after nesting is finished. The design also skips the exterior perch, which is intentional: native cavity-nesting birds do not need one, and leaving it out helps reduce access for predators and unwanted birds.

This plan is a good fit for a DIY bluebird house, classic cedar birdhouse, bluebird nesting box, or backyard birdhouse project. You can leave the cedar natural or use a bird-safe exterior finish, while keeping the inside untreated for nesting safety.
