This Coveside Eastern bluebird house follows the proportions bluebirds prefer, with a 1.5-inch entry hole and a deep cavity above the floor that keeps nestlings out of reach. The full 1-inch white pine walls moderate temperature swings far better than thin-walled boxes, protecting eggs and young in both heat and cold.
Mount it on a smooth pole four to six feet up in open lawn or meadow, away from dense brush, and angle the entry away from wind and rain. Ventilation slots, drainage holes, and a side panel that swings open make it easy to keep the box dry, monitored, and clean between broods.
Coveside has been handcrafting bird habitats in Maine for decades, using sustainably sourced wood and nest-box designs trusted by bluebird enthusiasts across the country.
