The Martin House 



Are Birds 

 Welcome? 



The houses I build for song- 

 sters win them — they come back 

 every year and I always have 

 plenty of bird guests. It took 

 me several years to get these 

 houses just right for the birds, 

 however— they are particular little fellows. 



Three of my designs won such favor that I decided 

 to sell the houses to those who want bird neighbors.
