We now have 2 birdhouses thanks to Eric Draper, local environmental advocate & friend of ECDC! In his spare time (who has any of that?) he designs and builds homes for birds out of 100% recycled materials. We had a choice of two different designs but then he graciously just said, “let’s put them both up” so the hole-digging proceeded, one in the garden and the other in a spot in the back of the playground that we decided was very “feng-shui.” We learned from Eric that if you put a little tiny bit of nesting material inside the empty house, birds are more likely to choose it for their home. So now we are just waiting to see what happens.
