Winter Roosting Boxes. This is a winter roost box i built for chickadees or other small birds. they can use this as a shelter for cold winter nights. i saw some plans online but not as big as this one. i wanted to make a bigger one. It could hold about 20 of them. We'll see. I put a pic of my plan at the end of the video. Let me know what you think. Have questions? please like and subscribe.

No Big birds Allowed DIY (Do it yourself) • Added Oct 30th 2015. I will try to make other Nest boxes for other types of birds. would love to make something for Blue Jays and Northern Flickers. i know i see the Blue Jays for as long as i feed them peanuts. also for other woodpeckers that stay here for the winter. • If you have any good plans for those boxes, please post a link in the comments. • A roost box is similar to a birdhouse in that it provides shelter for birds, but it is not intended for building nests or raising hatchlings. Instead, a roost box provides secure shelter from predators, low temperatures and poor weather for multiple cavity-nesting birds. Depending on the bird species and size of the flock, a dozen birds or more may take advantage of a single roost box to share body heat through cold winter nights, greatly improving their chances of surviving harsh weather and sudden freezes. • http://birding.about.com/od/birdhouse...
