Wednesday, September 1st, 2010Birdhouse Western
One of the more decorative elements can be placed in a yard is a bird house and bird feeder. One of the most popular styles of bird houses is Victorian style because of its elegance. There is no one specific style of Victorian architecture, but several styles that were popular in the United States in the period of the reign of Queen Victoria in the last 60 years of the 19th century. In the Northeast, the steeply pitched roof and tile width of the Eastlake Stick was very popular. States South and West in fact the Queen Anne style, with its spacious wraparound balconies popular as New Orleans and San Francisco leaned toward the Italian style, with its curiously fireplaces classified, and viewpoints.
There are some features in the style that is found throughout the Victorian architecture. Every Victorian has the familiar octagon or round towers as defining features. The most common feature found in this type of architecture is the "popular" in Victoria. Classic models were built for the rich who had access to architects. But the common man had no access to the architects designed their own home. These houses designed for the common man, there were classics but have their own charm.
The classic Victorian homes varied significantly, but had a theme. They represented a lifestyle of the rich and famous from the 1800s. The excess was the theme of time and that is where the rich and famous spent their money.
The Victorian-style bird house, bird house will have the traditional towers octagonal or round as a defining characteristic. The porch traditional also, wrap the base of the tower. It often contain one, two and three stories, suitable for purple martins. The Victorian will have several rooms. This will domains that the bird hanging too heavy to hang. Robusta for mounting posts will solve this problem.
Just like the houses of the period, bird houses in the Victorian style arrive in style villas or multi-story houses with balconies, porches and roofs intricate. Any style that the owner decides for your guests aviary will surely please and delight birds and human visitors.

My birdhouse needs repairing, but when is a good time?
Let me start out by saying, I know nothing about birds, except that I adore looking at and listening to them. My husband built a cute birdhouse with 4 “apartments”. Every year, each spring, I sit at my computer and watch them out my bedroom window. Tiny brown birds that sing. I tease my husband that they are carrying signs picketing the ‘landlord’ on unsafe living conditions. So here’s my questions.
When would be a good time to take the house down and repair loose boards and exposed nail heads? I know it would be after little babies leave, I’m sure, but the birds are so small I cannot tell if they are grown or not. I live in Western North Carolina, if that helps.
Thanks
The best time is over winter but you can do it quickly now as most birds are just beginning to nest. They will return even if disturbed for a day or two.
