Downy Woodpecker House

America's smallest woodpecker species, the Downy is a backyard favorite. These are friendly little birds that enjoy being around people. Since Downys tend to use nest boxes in the winter as roosts to escape the cold, fall is a great time to put up a house. The birdhouse comes with standard slate squirrel guard. Wood chips are also included and should be renewed each nesting cycle.
