I finally decided it was time to bring the old birdhouse down. It was really falling apart! We bought a fancy cedar one and decided to hang it on the other side of the tree - to avoid the prevailing winds. The cedar smells so nice! For the price of this birdhouse, these birds will need to start paying rent!
It has been 2 days and still no new occupants though. I wonder if I should have taken the "fluff" from the old bird house and put it into the new one. Technically, these bird houses are suppose to attract blue birds for nesting. Although our old one was occupied by a couple of house wrens. I did spot the wrens on the roof of the new one, but they haven't decided to move in yet. Only time will tell!
