My Second Birdhouse Gourd
I am so happy with this beautiful birdhouse. It is my second and I am planning on buying a few more. The workmanship is amazing. It is just like the picture too. I love to sit on the porch swing and admire them. I hang them in between my plants in spring, summer, fall and in winter they cheer up my day when the flowering plants are gone. A wonderful find! I will put some in the trees next spring and see who might like to make these houses their home.

Right now, it's hanging in her living room! Either way, she loves it.
