Birdwatching is a fun hobby. Many people enjoy it every day. You can also enjoy it. Birdwatching does not have to take a lot of time or money. With materials(材料) around your house, you can build a good birdhouse. You can start birdwatching in 30 minutes in your very own yard. It's very easy!
Materials you will need:
Milk box ●Glue ●Scissors ●Brown paint ●Tools for painting
To build a better birdhouse
⒈Clean and dry the milk box.
⒉Glue the top of the milk box shut.
⒊Cut holes into the milk box for the birds to get into the birdhouse. The size you use will determine which birds use the house. You can cut one hole per side, or two. A good place to cut is about four inches(英寸) from the bottom(底部).
⒋Paint your milk box brown. The color helps the birdhouse mix with the tree.
⒌Cut holes into the milk box in the bottom of the box to let out any dirty things. Add at least two small holes on the top of the box. The top holes are to let in clean air. Do this after painting, or the paint could fill in your holes!
⒍Put the box in a tree. You can see the birdhouse from a window of your house. Now you can watch your birds in any weather!
