To state an obvious flaw, what were you expecting to attract with an opening that large? A bird would need 1/4 the size or less.

Yeah this is a deathtrap for birds. Horrible design.

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 36 points 5 months ago (1 children)

At this point you're just feeding birds to the cats.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 35 points 5 months ago

Ah, so it's a bird feeder

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 18 points 5 months ago

Yeah. Even without the cat, it's an open buffet for predator birds.

Fun fact, many birds can and will hiss when they feel threatened. Parrots and some larger birds come to mind

It's like grub hub but for cats.

(Watch out birds!)

Next time search for pictures of bird houses and realize that you don’t use a hanger bay door for the entrance to a bird house.

Pretty sure it's an owl nesting box.

It fits, so ... it sits
