A birdhouse hung from a tree branch offers shelter to wild birds, and you may be lucky enough to find that a family of birds makes their nest in your birdhouse! Remember, if you do find a nest in a birdhouse, it's okay to look, but please don't touch the nest.

Here are some cool sites that have directions for making your very own birdhouse:
