Our Convertible Winter Bird Roosting Box is two products in one, providing a welcoming shelter for birds during cold and warm weather, too.
With the entrance hole located at the bottom half of the box the body heat put off by the birds will rise and remain in the house, providing a roost more comfortable than the cold outdoors.
When spring arrives the roosting box is easily converted to a nest box by locating the entrance hole at the top end of the front panel. The entrance hole at the top provides more protection for the nest and eggs.
Similar in size to our Small Winter Roosting Box.
Roosting Box measures 12-1/2" high by 7" wide by 9" deep.
Hand crafted in the USA by Coveside, of Eastern White Pine which provides insulation and durability.
Over time the wood will darken and more naturally blend in with the environment.

Converting from roost box to a birdhouse:
Tool needed: Phillips screwdriver
The winter roost converts to a birdhouse by inverting the front panel. First, open the front from the bottom and slide the perches out through the sides of the box. Then remove a screw on each side of the house.
The front can then be inverted with the bottom aligned with the base of the house. The screws can be reinserted into the original holes on the sides.
After conversion there should be a slot at the top of the front to allow for ventilation during the nesting season.

Enjoy viewing the activities in the roosting box with the addition of a video camera attached to your PC or television. The camera comes with a 100' cord and depending on the distance from your house to the roosting box, you may want to also purchase the 100' extension cord from the menu below.
