<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We had a great time at the Seymour Pumpkin Festival Sunday. The rain held off all day long, just a little muggy at the end.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Fred won third place in the wood category. He has been very busy making Halloween items for shows.</span><br />

This birdhouse is a favorite. Many have bought the chicken coop for wedding gifts, house warming gifts, and birthday gifts.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We have ours on a pole in the back yard. It is a three compartment birdhouse and the birds have enjoyed it now for four years.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We would like to add a picture from Mary, and her display of the birdhouse she purchased. Thank you Mary - enjoy it for many years!!!..</span><br />

There were a lot of vendors and we met some new friends.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The show also brought us new customers. We particularly enjoyed talking with Santiago & Jessica. They purchased three birdhouses from us and recently sent pictures.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We think you did a great job of displaying the birdhouses. Thank you so much for sharing your pictures. We hope to see you next year!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We participated in the Celebrate West Hartford Craft Show this weekend. The weather was perfect Saturday, a little to be desired Sunday, but all in all a very good show. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We had many repeat customers that we truly enjoyed seeing again. Some were even kind enough to take pictures of the birdhouses they purchased.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I want to thank Amy for her great pictures of our saltbox birdhouse Fred made. They decided to have it attached to a large wood pole that Fred also created.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It really looks great in your garden Amy and Doug. Enjoy it and looking forward to seeing you again next year!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The male House Wren will build these partial nests in several birdhouses. Once the female House Wren selects a birdhouse she mates with the male that built it for her.</span><br />

The end of February should be a good time to hang your birdhouses for the songbirds that will be frequenting your yard this spring.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">One specific songbird you will hear this spring will the Wren. You will hear the males signing as they busily build partial nests in multiple birdhouses. They do this to offer a suitable site for the female to raise their young in.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When the female Wren has found the birdhouse of her choice she will mate with the male and together they will raise their family.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We want to wish everyone a very Happy New Year for 2016. The next three months Fred will be hard at work making birdhouses for the upcoming craft shows for next year.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">He also has gone back to his roots and is once again making primitive items for your home. One of our customers purchased a large primitive heart and sent us a picture of it. She hung it above her fireplace. The moment she saw it she knew it was a perfect fit. We have to agree with her, it looks great. Thank you Marcia!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Once again we would like to post some pictures of a very dear customer and friend of ours who has faithfully purchased our birdhouses over the years. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We so much enjoy these pictures, it is a very nice feeling to know that the hard work Fred puts into making all of these birdhouses pays off and we love to hear all of your stories and admirations.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you Camille, your pictures are wonderful!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">We had a wonderful time in Trumbull CT Sunday. They called for scattered rain but we prevailed.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Thank you again for sharing Linda. We love the pictures.</span>Birdhouse Accentshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00924368676073095943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2522053917500773155.post-75119614435595071572015-09-15T07:35:00.001-04:002015-09-15T07:35:58.534-04:00Feeding The Birds During Winter<span style="font-size: large;">Here are some ways to attract birds to your yard during the fall and winter months. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Beef suet can be hung from November through April. The birds will eat it frozen as well. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Clean out the birdhouses that have been used throughout the Spring and Summer. Also add additional birdhouses to your yard. Birds that stay around will use them for warmth and protection during the cold winter months.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">If you do not get to cleaning up your yard, that's okay for a bird. Birds will use the dead leaves as cover and will eat any seeds they find on the ground.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Birds need water, a heated bird bath or fresh water source filled daily will encourage them to come to your yard to drink and bathe.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">A variety of feeders such as seed blocks, thistle tubes and sunflower seeds will attract goldfinches, chickadees, titmice and sparrows just to name a few.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.birdhouseaccents.com/">www.birdhouseaccents.com</a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> has many unique birdhouses. Come visit our website today.</span><br />

<br />Birdhouse Accentshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00924368676073095943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2522053917500773155.post-86893776365656800372015-09-04T09:41:00.000-04:002015-09-04T09:41:12.543-04:00BATS<span style="font-size: large;">There are over 40 species of bats in North America which makes it a good chance that there are bats in your yard. Bats feed on insects and therefore keep the population of mosquitoes and other insects at bay.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You can find bats in high canopy protecting trees. You will see them at dawn or dusk because they are nocturnal creatures. Bats like to be near water because that is where the insect population thrives. Believe it or not, bats like lampposts and lights, since this is also an attraction for insects.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For bats to visit your yard they need food, water and housing. A source of water such as a pond or creek should be no more than 1/4 mile away. This attracts insects which will attract bats.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">A bat house is an excellent way to keep bats around in your yard. Place the bat house at least 14 to 15 feet high to the south, south east. Bats like the sun and love the temperature of 85 degrees or more.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">These simple steps are just some ways to help the bat population thrive.</span>Birdhouse Accentshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00924368676073095943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2522053917500773155.post-67714473787457581342015-08-04T10:39:00.000-04:002015-08-04T10:39:08.422-04:00Butterflies<span style="font-size: large;">More and more people are interested in butterflies these days. Now there is a word for people who study butterflies, it is called butterflying. It is becoming a fast growing outdoor hobby on a gorgeous sunny day.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Butterflies can be found in overgrown fields where there are a variety of wildflowers. Believe it or not mud puddles are an attraction to many types of butterflies. They can absorb salts from these places. You may also want to put out a sugar water feeder or some rotting fruit. Just a couple of ways to attract butterflies to your backyard.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">If you decide to go butterflying just remember to pick a warm sunny day with little wind. Butterflies will stop flying when the weather is overcast, that's how much they like the sun.</span> Birdhouse Accentshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00924368676073095943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2522053917500773155.post-49122407845875321382015-07-27T10:09:00.000-04:002015-07-27T10:09:01.482-04:00<span style="font-size: large;">We had a wonderful weekend in Old Saybrook. Saturday was a lovely day with a slight breeze blowing constantly off the shore. Sunday was rainy in the morning but then cleared by afternoon. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Our craft customers did not let us down either day. We saw many new faces and many familiar faces from previous craft shows this year.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We love to hear your stories of how much you enjoy our birdhouses and love even more when you tell us they have been used to raise bird families.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We were very fortunate to run into Darlene again. She has been a loyal customer and we are very grateful to show you pictures she sent us of her beautiful gardens. Hope you enjoy them as much as we have. Thank you Darlene!!! </span><br />

Plenty of sunshine and lots of repeat customers. We were so happy to hear your stories of our birdhouses being occupied and thank you immensely for your patronage. One of our customers has sent us pictures of her birdhouses during the summer and winter months.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Remember, songbirds will use birdhouses for nesting and also for shelter during inclement weather. Thank you Karen for taking the time to send us your pictures, we really appreciate and enjoy them.</span><br />

Giving it a good rinse with the hose might not be enough. Sometimes you need something stronger to clean away the algae or built up dirt. A solution of water and bleach might just do the trick.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Test this solution on a small part of your birdbath to make sure it will hold up to this mixture. If so, begin by cleaning off the birdbath with your hose. Then add water until your birdbath is almost full. To this add one to one and a half cups of bleach.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Make sure you cover this mixture with a plastic trash bag and secure tightly. You do not want any birds getting into this mixture. Leave and let soak for 15 minutes. Drain mixture in a safe place.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Rinse your birdbath for a good few minutes until the smell of bleach is gone. Refill with water and let the birds enjoy a day in the sunshine.</span>Birdhouse Accentshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00924368676073095943noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2522053917500773155.post-56512158199623494112014-12-20T09:45:00.000-05:002014-12-20T09:47:07.505-05:00Birds, Winter, Holidays<span style="font-size: large;">Hello Everyone</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Fred & I would like to remind everyone to feed the birds this winter because it provides the energy they need to survive. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Keeping your feeders in easy to reach places and filled with food daily will let birds know they can rely on a source of food if need be. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Also, if you leave your birdhouses out during these winter months birds can find a spot to roost at night out of the cold. It is not uncommon for 6, 7, 8 etc. birds to huddle together overnight. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Lastly, a good source of ice free water is essential. Birds need drinking water and bathing water even in the winter time. Regular bathing allows birds to clean and waterproof their feathers with natural oils. Air trapped underneath feathers helps with insulation. Their feathers must be clean and dry in order for them to stay warm.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Looking forward to seeing everyone again in 2015.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Take Care.</span>Birdhouse Accentshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00924368676073095943noreply@blogger.com2
