The Street Sign Birdhouse Project

Is the spring of 2020, with COVID still a very serious threat, we saw countless neighbors taking walks throughout our neighborhood to get out of the house and enjoy some social distanced exercise. We thought It would be fun to put up a few birdhouses.

Well, 4 soon became 8, then 12, and is now something like 20 plus street sign mounted birdhouses throughout our neighborhood with more each year.

Every year we go through the neighborhood and, with Jane behind the wheel and ably assisted by granddaughter Ruby, we place the houses in the spring and then in the fall retrieve, clean, and store for the winter.

Invariably when we are doing this we get positive feedback from neighbors — along with a few requests for additional birdhouses.
