ABSTRACT:
A bird house assembly (10) includes a housing (12) defining a bird-nesting enclosure (13) therein. The housing (12) includes at least one deck wall (18) and sidewall (24, 26). An access hole (124) is defined in housing (12) for permitting ingress to and egress from the enclosure (13) by a bird. The sidewall (24) is preferably connected to the deck wall (18) using at least one locking connection tongue (98) depending from each sidewall (24) and configured for receipt within a corresponding tongue-receiving slot (54) defined in the deck wall (18). The housing (12) is coupled with a support member (16) in order to suspend the housing (12) above the ground. For such purposes, a pair of clamp assemblies (14) are preferably used and are configured for coupling with the support member (16) in a spaced relationship for engaging and holding the housing (12) therebetween. In preferred forms, the housing (12) includes an additional deck wall (20) and structure (28, 30) for defining a plurality of multi-story, bird-nesting compartments (32) within the enclosure (13).
