Coveside manufactures a
habitat for every species of cavity nesting bird in North
America, plus a complete assortment of bat houses, feeders and
other wildlife products. The dimensions and details of our habitats are correct
in all details for each species, easy to clean, well insulated and provide for
proper drainage. Each Coveside nesting box comes with a species specific
educational brochure.
Coveside was founded in
1991. Our products represent 17 years of evolution, as well as the insights and
experience of a wide range of wildlife experts. All of our wildlife habitats
and the majority of our feeders are made of sustainably grown wood.
* Handcrafted in Maine
* Product Quality: Our
customers tell us again and again that our products are "the best on the
market" with the unique rougher-head finish and secure construction.
* Environmental Concern:
The dimensions are correct for each species and care is given to ventilation
and drainage for the well being of the inhabitants.
* Conservationists Prefer:
Our products are manufactured from eastern white pine which is preferable
because it is a second-growth tree which rejuvenates quickly. Eastern white pine is a soft wood and is easy to work with.
* Educational Materials:
Each product comes with a brochure and a point-of-purchase card telling about
the wildlife inhabitant that will use it, recommending ideas for location and
suggestions for maintenance procedures.
* Experts Select: Our
habitats were selected to be on permanent display in the United
States Arboretums Buchheister National
Bird Garden
in Washington, D.C and the Wildlife Garden
at River Farm
Gardens of the American Horticultural
Society in Alexandria, Virginia.
Robbins Lumber
The lumber used to make
the BirdLodges.com pine products is from Robbins Lumber of Searsmont, Maine:
Robbins Lumber is a
forest products firm producing Eastern white pine lumber
and byproducts in its mill, while caring for and growing
forest products on superbly managed woodlands. For over one hundred and
twenty-one years, the Robbins family has been working in the Maine woods and producing quality white pine
lumber products. The lessons of wood milling, business finance, distribution
and forest management have been accumulated over six generations of the family.
The one lesson taught to each generation has been that there's always a better
way, some way to be more efficient, to deliver a better product, to be the
first with an idea that will benefit our customers.
Robbins Lumber, Inc. is a
leader in responsible forestry management practices. We continually replant
where we harvest. We secure the soil from erosion, preserve wildlife habitats
and ensure that a sixth generation of Robbins can depend on a healthy and productive forest of quality
Eastern pine.
We are proud to have
received the National Arbor Day Foundation Award for outstanding forestry
practices. We're committed to the future in everything we do.
