A WALK TO THE Fowl of the air HOUSE

  • Sep. 11th, 2008 at 7:51 AM
Upon reaching the gate, I notice it was pad locked with a chain. I hadn't noticed that on my quick visit last time at the fence. But both doors were ajar, so I said quite loudly, "Elizabeth, Elizabeth are you home?" No answer. Again, I called out "Elizabeth, it Wanda, your neighbor, I have brought you a little gift." The door opened and she appeared in a pair of Pajamas to which I said, "Oh I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to wake you. She assured me, I had not, and came to the fence. Not feeling this was an appropriate time to visit, I handed her the card and loaf and told her that I had baked Cinnamon loaves yesterday and wanted to have one with one of my watercolor cards.

Fowl HOUSE

  • Jun. 19th, 2008 at 9:11 PM


I BUILT A BIRD HOUSE.
I was just sitting in my favorite overstuffed rocking chair,,
(not rocking of course,, because it was broken) has been
for seven years,, I think the horse died,, well I was just sitting
there with my 12 pack of warm beer,, watching pro-rastling on
my black and white 14 TV,, the color one was broken too
Watching a steel caged death match featuring,, Triple H,,
the Undertaker,, Machoman Savage and the return of
Hulk Hogan,, it was great as the bodies flew thru the air and
gosh there was blood everywhere,, I think the Hulk broke
Triple Hs back,, then I heard her sweet voice from the
couch over there
My beauty most fair,, all 350lbs of her,, sitting on the steel
I-beam reinforced couch I made for her this year,, wearing a
camouflaged moo-moo she got at the army surplus store,,
I think it was used to cover armored Hum-Vees in the
desert warsShe was reading last months issue of
House and Garden,, eating chocolate covered
bon-bons 4 at a time,, with her 2 lhasa apsos,, and some chips
and dip and éclairs too,, by her side Shes changed just a
since we got married,, she used to be a size ,,
but that was,, oh,, 18 months ago,, Can you build a bird house for me?
was her question Now I have been married quite some time
now,, and Ive learned not to say to my honey bunny,,
or frying pans start to come flying and rolling pins really do hurt,,
when smashed about your head,, not like in the cartoons,,
it really does hurt,, and blood starting oozing,, and stitches are
always requiredYes,, sweetie pie,, I can do that for you,, I said with a smile
You see I am quite handy about the house,, I built those shelves
on the wall there,, not my fault their not quite square,,
I think it was the lumber,, or the paint somehow,, and I built her
a display so she could show off her collection of
ceramic pink bunnies to her friends,, (I think their junk,,
but dont tell her that,, I want to keep on living for another
year or so) it looks very nice,, even tho the openings are not all
the same size,, and the middle one slopes just a little to the left,,
but thats the way the plans were I guess,, I also built the coffee
table in the living room,, now piled high with empty
boxes,, coke bottles and issues of Harpers Bazaar,,
dont mind the book under that one leg,, it must be the floor
thats out of wack...

With sausage sized fingers she ripped out the pages that showed
how to build a pretty bird house just right,, all 17 pages of it
It had a list of materials,, 3 colored photos,, a plan view,,
6 elevations,, exploded parts,, and an isometric,, just for a
bird house than was only 8,, it had 12 pages of instructions,,
written in plain English,, Spanish,, and Chinese,, I guess they have
birds in China too,, it was masterfully done and showed me
what to do,, and in sequence too...
I then got off by butt and when right out the door,, as I was
passing her on the couch there,, I was bitten by both her lhasa apsos,,
they dont like me very much,, I guess its cuz I kick em in the butt
whenever shes not looking Off to the hardware store I went,,
in my brand new dodge ram diesel pick-em up truck,, it had dual
quads and a V-8 hemi,, it was bright red,, and impressed all my
friends,, to the store I went 40 miles away,, had to get some gas
tho before I got on the freeway,, it cost me $57.50,, with a
coke and two bags of chips

The materials list I had was quite complete,, it listed everything
I could possibly need.. 1 sheet of 3/8 exterior plywood,, $34.40,,
a package of stainless steel nails,, 1 long and some screws,,
they were stainless too,, $9.25,, I got a gallon of white paint
and some very nice paint brushes,, mine were all used and full of
left over paint goo,, $18.75,, a couple of tubes of white caulking
was added,, just to make the joints look real nice,, $6.75,,
and I needed a 3/8 dowel 4 long,, they didnt have any that size
so I had to get one 8 long,, $6.95,, I didnt need any drill bits,,
I had some in the garage,, somewhere

Back home I went,, with all my supplies in the back,, to home and
into the garage,, I unloaded it all and placed my supplies against
the wall You know,, plywood is kind of heavy and awkward too,,
I hope I can put my side mirror back on with some
I set up my aluminum sawhorses and proceeded to start cutting out
the plywood shapes I would need for my sweetie pie bird house,,
I accidentally cut my circular saws electric cord and it knocked me
flying thru the air with quite a shock,, landing on the windshield
of my brand new pick-em up truck,, the windshield kinda got
broken and smashed,, I guess Ill have to have that fixed,,
my shoes were smoking,, the sides had been blown out and
my socks were on fire Getting down from the hood of my
pick-em up truck,, I stepped on her nephews skateboard and
landed on the concrete floor,, with my head hitting the garden
tiller and I think I broke my elbow,, the skateboard went rolling
down the driveway and got run over by the garbage truck that
was picking up the trash at the curb

The garbage man wasnt very happy about that,, because when
he drove over the skateboard,, it poked a hole in one of his duelies,,
well he came up to me in my garage and knocked out two of my
front teeth,, the trash company sent me a bill for the tire,,
$400.95,, taxes included After the garbage man left,,
I picked up my two front teeth from the floor and went over to
the doctors office in town to have my head looked at and
my elbow too,, he was 30 miles away so I had to put more gas
in my brand new dodge ram diesel pick-em up truck,,
$39.25,, with a coke and 2 bags of chips The doc put some
stitches in my head,, gave me some real nice pain pills (whoopee),,
took some x-rays of my elbow,, then set it in a flexible cast,,
$325.95,, Im sure that my insurance will cover it
Going home from the doctors,, I was stopped by a
state trooper while I was driving down the highway,, he gave me
a ticket for my broken windshield and one for the missing
sideview mirror too,, it was real nice of him,, he smiled all the
time,, $175.25,, I have to be in court on the 16th

Back to the garage I went to finish honey pies bird house,,
I left my pick-em up truck in the driveway,, it wouldnt take long,,
I had all the pieces cut now,, all I had to do was put them together
just like the picture Looking at the exploded view and
the 6 elevations,, didnt help much,, so I just put them together
as best I could,, it looked kind of alright,, a little white caulking
would make the joints just perfect,, all I had left to do was
drill a 1 hole in the front and glue the dowel in and then
paint it,, I would be done in no time,, and then I could get back
to watching

Well I couldnt find my drill bits in my garage,, so I had to go back
to the hardware store,, I got the spade bit and a 3/8 one too,,
just to be sure,, $6.35,, had to fill up my pick-em truck again when
I got back home,, $42.87,, with a coke and 2 bags of chips...
I got the drill all set up and started to drill the bird hole with that
new 1 spade bit I got,, then the bit got stuck in my aluminum
sawhorse and the drill started to twisting around and around and
it wound up the electric cord that I was standing on and it pulled
my foot right from under me,, I landed on my butt,, right on the
metal garden rake I had left by the wall,, cuz the shed was full
Well it went right thru my jeans and did it hurt,, blood went flying,,
so I went to the doctors again and he stitched up my butt to stop
the bleeding and he gave me a tetanus shot too,, and some real
big white butt bandages,, $185.15 I finally finished the bird house
for my sweetie pie,, but rastling was over and I just sat at the
kitchen table on a nice pillow drinking a beer,, then my
honey bunny came waddling sideways thru the 4 wide
patio door I had put in,, seems she had to go to the store for
some more chocolate covered bon-bons,, she got 12 boxes,,
that should last her about a day or two,, then she took out of
her sack,, a brand new bird house,, she got on sale at the store,,
it only cost $8.

During the summer we are always out in our backyards, enjoying the sunny weather and the warmth that comes with it.  But there is plenty to enjoy in the garden during the colder winter months as well, and if you go about it in the right way you can ensure that even when you are sitting indoors looking out of your back window you can watch the birds flocking to your garden.
One bird which is particularly nice to see around this time of year is the robin.  Always a staple of Christmas cards and similar wintry scenes, there is a good chance they will come to your garden if you provide a robin bird house for them.
If you have never considered building your own robin bird house, try reading through the points below to get an idea of what is involved before you try it for yourself.

Finding The Plans For A Robin Bird House
You might be wondering why a robin bird house is any different from a regular bird house.  In truth, robins like a nice sheltered site to use as their home, so you need to bear this in mind if you want to build a robin bird house for them.
The design itself is fairly simple – it should ideally incorporate a shelf instead of just conforming to the regular design, so the robins will feel safe and encouraged to shelter their young and raise them within sight of your house.
There are plenty of good plans for a robin bird house available for free online, and they will usually give you a comprehensive list of the materials you will need to build it successfully as well.
Where Should You Put It?
This might sound like a strange question but it is actually very important.  Robins will not be encouraged to use your robin bird house if you situate it in the wrong place.  Steer clear of busy and exposed areas of your garden.  Instead, put it somewhere very sheltered and quiet where they can come and make a home without being disturbed.
Ideally of course you will want to put your robin bird house somewhere in full view of your windows as well, so that you can enjoy seeing the activity involved when a robin brings up a young family in your garden.
It’s very easy to build the right kind of house, and once it is in place you will soon be welcoming a new family into your garden.

In what manner To Build A Fowl House

  • May. 14th, 2008 at 3:51 PM


How To Build A Bird House - If you enjoy spending time around birds then you may want to build a birdhouse. Building a birdhouse is a great way to become a companion of birds. Birdhouses add attractiveness to any landscape. Crafting, designing and building birdhouses is a in-expensive hobby.
You need to construct a birdhouse that is easy to clean. It should be sturdy, cool, and rainproof as well. Remember, this is your birdhouse, so use your imagination; you will have something unique and all your own when your project is completed..
It is important not to use metal to build your birdhouse, not even nails; use non-toxic outdoor wood glue. Metal can become very hot when the sun is beating down on it, plus it can have very sharp edges. Wood is the best material to build a birdhouse. To keep water out of the entrance of the birdhouse you need the roof to pitch enough to shed water.
Add a couple small holes near the top of the birdhouse for ventilation on hot days. The bottom of the birdhouse should be constructed with screws, so it will be easy to take apart when you clean it.
When your bird house is built it is time to mount it. When mounting your birdhouse it is important to keep in mind predators, such as squirrels, cats and snakes. Place your bird house mount out of the range of jumping and climbing animals. The best mount for a birdhouse is PVC pipe which can be purchased inexpensively at your local home hardware supply store. Get an 8 long piece of PVC that is 3 or 4 in diameter. Also be sure and buy a flange that will fit into the PVC. When looking at a from the side it has the shape of a mans dress hat, as one would also look at the dress hat from from its side view. The round part of the - or slips down, about 2 into one end of the PVC pipe. The flat part of the - or should have a small hole pre-drilled in each corner. A large, approx. 12 x 12 piece of plywood is attached, to the flat part of the or with screws via the pre-drilled holes. Be sure this is placed in the middle of the 12 x 12 plywood. This will serve as your birdhouse base. Now turn this over and simply slide the round part of the - or into the end of your PVC pipe. On top of this securely mount your bird house. When you have moved your PVC to an upright mounting position, you would be looking upward, and see the screws that attached flange to your 12 x 12 base.
Now its time to mount your bird house. Dig about an 18 hole and drop it in! Be sure and pack the dirt solidly back around the base to secure it. For added security you could pick up an inexpensive bag of ready mix cement. Just mix it with water, set the PVC in the middle of the hole and pour the cement evenly around it. It is a good idea if you could put your hands on a level to make sure your PVC stays vertically straight while working. Thats all there is to it!
When you are ready to clean your bird house simple unscrew the 12 x 12 base mounting screws, slide off the base with its attached birdhouse and clean it! When cleaned, replace the 12 x 12 base and reinsert your screws. Now wasnt that easy!

If you lightly coat the PVC pipe mount with in-expensive vegetable oil ants and other crawling insects will not be able to climb disturb the bird nest.
Dont forget to treat your feathered friend with feeders, bird baths or bird pond sprinkle the area with some wild flower seeds. When your wild flower are in bloom your feathered friend will provide you with constant delight. ~ Anthony Benjamin ~ www.mysecretsites.info http://www.mysecretsites.info
