These gorgeous birds search for a safe place to nest and raise their young each autumn. Learn how to attract the charming Western bluebird into your yard as you build a beautiful and ecologically sustainable bird house. Anthony will share inspirational images for your design, and you will learn basic tool and woodworking skills.  With your beautiful birdhouse you can help these small but mighty birds that support biodiversity and provide natural pest control as they sing soft, quavering songs in flight.
