Purple Martin House, The Wingstead

The inspiring song and flight of purple martins is a captivating sight, and you can help these birds thrive by adding this purple martin house, The Wingstead, to your backyard. These colonial birds roost exclusively in manmade housing, and this 10-room shelter is thoughtfully designed to meet their needs while adding charm to your landscape.

The all-white, UV-stabilized copolymer body keeps the interior cool and comfortable and can be painted for a personalized touch. Eight roomy main-floor compartments and two unique attic apartments provide varied nesting options, while crescent-shaped entries deter starlings. Black, textured floors offer traction and include built-in nest bowls to help martins anchor their homes with ease.

Each swing-up door makes nest checks simple, and the pitched white roof provides protection from the elements. The unit snaps together for easy assembly, and a 2" diameter center opening accommodates a pulley-style Martin pole system (not included) for secure mounting.
