Rang a hAon made bird feeders to encourage some smaller birds into our yard and to hopefully set up home in our beautiful bird house which we installed with a camera. We are really excited to see if any birds will take up residence. The house has a front opening which is suitable for Robins and Pied Wagtails of which there are plenty in our yard.
