Birdhouse, The Swallow Shell

Give bluebirds and swallows a cozy place to call home with this bird house, the Swallow Shell, a durable hanging gourd that’s full of smart features and classic charm. Crafted in the USA from one-piece, molded plastic, this heavy-duty shelter offers a fresh twist on traditional birdhouses while meeting all the needs of your feathered guests.

A 1.5" front entry hole makes for an ideal bluebird or tree swallow entrance, protected by a molded rain canopy that helps keep the interior dry. Raised ridges and textured plastic beneath the entry create built-in perches for easy takeoff, landing, and lingering. The beige color helps regulate internal temperature, keeping nestlings cool even in the summer sun.

Drainage holes at the base allow moisture to escape, and a side-access port with a threaded cap makes nest checks and cleanouts simple. Hang the gourd using the two holes in the extended neck with a wire or mount it on a 1/4" rod (not included). Built to resist weathering, cracking, and fading, the Swallow Shell is made to last season after season.

• Crafted from molded plastic, this durable, one-piece shelter offers a wealth of features for any bluebird family and their aficionados.
• The 1.5" diameter front opening provides birds a classic entrance, while a rain canopy overhangs this entry to protect the interior from the elements.
• Raised lines on this section, along with textured plastic beneath it, act as perching spots for your feathered friends, and the beige tone throughout the item helps keep nestlings cool.
• Holes on the base allow water to drain from the unit, and a side access port with threaded cap makes nest checks and maintenance simple.
• Two holes in the extended neck accommodate a wire for hanging the shelter, or they can easily be enlarged for placement on a 1/4" rod.
