Years ago, we bought this little wooden birdhouse garden decor and placed it in the flower bed by our bedroom. (The black pole to the side is a shepherd’s hook for one of our bird feeders.)
Its’ seen better days, and the little ‘flap’ at the back has a loose hinge. But yesterday, I caught this sweet little wren checking out the bird house.
I wondered if she were in search of a place to build a nest.
I went out later to look, and there was no evidence of any nesting materials.
I propped the little door back in place. I thought, if she wants to build, she might use the front door.
I’ve seen the following phrase many times on little home accents. Perhaps this was what Mama Wren had in mind.
*BACK DOOR GUESTS ARE BEST*
