Hey folks,

I manage the Facebook stream for Blomidon Naturalists. I recently receive a
message from someone who purchased a woodlot on North Mountain and is
hoping to put up some bird boxes.

They're looking for specific dimensions/instructions for bird boxes that
will house native, mosquito-eating birds.

I don't have any experience with bird boxes, and I off the top of my head,
I can't think of any forest-dwelling insectivorous species that would
utilize a nest box. Anything coming to mind to anyone?

In the absence of that information, can someone who has built nest boxes
recommend a tried and true location to get instructions/dimensions for
building this info?

Thanks in advance,
Ian
