Mr. and Mrs. Birdie Nest Boxes by Desinature
Any A&D product introducing itself with the descriptor “particularly suited for robins, wrens, and pied wagtails,” easily rates high on the curiosity quotient, particularly when it comes flat-packed in the mail and light enough, for, well, a carrier pigeon to transport. Those with an appreciation for this and like bird metaphors will naturally gravitate to these self-assembly Mr. and Mrs. Birdee nest boxes made by Desinature.

The Mr. and Mrs. Birdee Nest Boxes are an Eco-Friendly Set of Birdhouses for the New Millennium
To hear Love Eco tell it, the green building movement doesn’t end with the needs of Homo Sapiens, but rather extends to those of avian disposition too. The Mr. and Mrs. Birdee nest boxes evince some very thoughtful green touches as they carve out a space for “birds to raise a family in your own garden.”
The easy-to-assemble birdhouses feature lightweight birch ply from FSC certified sources. The material arrives in flat sheets, but a simple soak in water loosens it up enough to bend it into a cylinder and fasten the two ends together, then, voila!—Mr. and Mrs. Birdee have a new abode in which to nurture their latest flock.
No doubt the aforementioned robins and wrens will be drawn to the nest boxes’ intuitively organic shape, its smart use of space, its thorough updating of the classical birdhouse motif. Without question, the Mr. and Mrs. Birdee nest boxes bring good design to the formerly rarefied terrain of bower and branch.
