Bugs aren’t the only creatures to invade our yards when the weather changes (thank God for that!). Where I live, there are birds chirping all around. In fact, my little guy loves to chase them, thinking he’ll be able to catch one! That hasn’t worked for him (yet), but we do have a little birdhouse in the backyard that he made with his dad. It seems to attract birds, just not when he is around. If you’re looking for some ideas on a DIY birdhouse for your yard, check out these 6 amazing creations.
