Robin/Blackbird nesting box

Placement Advice

Position the nest box below 2 metres from the ground, well hidden among foliage or against a wall or fence. Choose a quiet, shaded spot, sheltered from strong wind and direct sunlight. Robins and blackbirds prefer discreet locations rather than open, exposed areas.

Handmade & Sustainable

Each bird box is individually handmade, so natural variations in wood grain and finish may occur — a sign of genuine craftsmanship and not mass production.

By choosing this nest box, you’re helping support native garden birds while adding a thoughtfully made, long-lasting feature to your outdoor space.
