A Birdhouse ( also called nestbox ) is a man-made box provided for animals to nest in. Birdhouses are most frequently utilized for wild and domestic birds, but certain species of mammal may also use them.

Birdhouses are usually wooden, though some for birds are made from mixtures of wood and concrete, called woodcrete. Metal nest boxes are also marketed, but these are generally unsuitable for outdoor use, as they can overheat easily in sunshine.

The majority are cuboid, and many have a sloping roof. Many have a hinged top to provide access for cleaning, bird ringing or, when used for domesticated species, to give the breeder access to the young. Boxes may either have an entrance hole or be open fronted. Some birdhouses are highly decorated and complex while others are plain and cozy. Designs resembling human house design or other structures are very common.

Birhouses can be found at any online or local birdhouse shop.
