Product Description
Want to attract birds to your backyard sanctuary? This book is for you. For years, birdhouses were used to attract songbirds and protect vanishing species. Today, they are prized as folk art and desired because of the aesthetic qualities they bring to the home and garden.

From fanciful houses that resemble animal figures to more traditional designs, such as dovecote and martin houses, this exquisite book features gorgeous birdhouses and tells the stories behind them.

Author Leslie Garisto provides suggestions for using birdhouses as design accents in the garden or home and provides advice on what to look for, where to shop, and how much to pay for authentic birdhouses.

2 out of 5 stars Do Not Light Here   November 16, 2008

I am always looking for inspiration and alternatives for my birdhouse designs. The first part of this book caught my fancy with great photographs. Sadly the section on design plans was a great disappointment with little or no illustrations or photographs of completed houses. Also, there was no index in my edition. Bummer...wish I had bought it used rather than paying full price.

How do you put out a book like this with no pictures of the finished projects? Ridiculous! I wish I could give it ZERO stars!

This book was quite useful. However, I also purchased "Build Your Own Birdhouses and Feeders: From Simple, Natural Designs to Spectacular, Customized Houses and Feeders" at the same time. I was very disappointed to find that the plans were almost all EXACTLY THE SAME.

I WAS VERY DISSAPPOINTED WITH THIS BOOK. IN THE SECTION WHERE THEY HAVE THE INSTUCTIONS FOR BIRD HOUSES TO BUILD THEY DON'T HAVE A PICTURE OF IT. EVEN THE DRAWING IS NOT OF THE FINISHED BIRD HOUSE BUT A DRAWING WITH ALL THE PIECES UNATTACHED. I GUESS YOU HAVE TO BUILD THE THING TO SEE WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE. BIG HELP!

Good designs, easy to follow plans. This book piqued my interest in dovecotes, and now I'm off in another direction.
