What a clever concept. I bet it looks real nice shinning in the sunlight. Thanks for sharing RickieD.

-- My favorite piece is my last one, my best piece is my next one.

Very nice work Rick !!!! . I really like the style and the glass goes very well with it .

Wonderfully wacky! I love it. You didn’t mention the recycled electricity pole support. That should last a year or three!

recycled lumber.. recycled glass…. recycled pole :)
Well it’s already lasted 25 years (since I’ve lived here) :)

beautiful work … both birdhouses are really neat. I like the way they are mounted.

thanks Dan
The plan is to put a village up there.
Of course I will probably have to move my clothesline—it tends to be in the line of fire of incoming/outgoing birds.

Very nice & unique. I think that’s the first birdhouse ever, with stained glass windows.

well, Dick, you made Rick smile big on that one :)

It looks so lovely up there in the sky, with the light shining through the windows!

great idea! You’ve got me thinking about hitting yard sales, just to find some old glass to recycle. (As if I don’t have enough stuff in the attic.) How great would that look in the morning light! and It’s already occupied!

it looks beautiful in the morning and the evening—and every moment in between :)

and the visitor didn’t stay. He’s a tenant in the lower house. But he checked it out!

Did you leave a hinge to dump the old nests?
I always do but am wondering if it is necessary.

Nice idea, I’m stealling it – sue me. <g>

John says he uses a hook to reach in and pull things out. Sounds easy to me.

haha that’s ok. You can use the idea—no charge :D

Great job. Good luck in the contest.
