Stoneware Nesting Jar Individually hand thrown on the potter's wheel in the mountains of North Carolina, the stoneware nesting jar birdhouse is excellent for small nesting songbirds. The 1.25" opening is ideal for any chickadee, nuthatch, wren, warbler, or tufted titmouse. A drainage hole keeps the inside dry and ventilated. Perfect for all climates, this high-fired pottery birdhouse will not fade and is unaffected by harsh weather elements (including ice). Choose above from royal blue or butternut colors. ~ Handcrafted in the USA ~ > Why is there no perch on the birdhouse? It is recommended that perches be used only for bird feeders, not birdhouses, as the perch can provide access to potential predators. Birds can easily enter without the use of a perch. size: 6.0" high x 5.0" wide weight: approx. 1.5 lbs materials: Stoneware Pottery
