Nothing says bird house like a hanging plastic trailer!
If only birds had little trucks and little bird hands so they could open the door
Score
Camper birdhouse so the birds can migrate in style: 1 point
Subtotal: 1 point
Creativity Bonus
For a completely nonfunctional trailer birdhouse which looks like is hanging from a larger trailer (which may or may not function): 2 points
Total: 3 points
I bet the wrens peak in the windows and beat on the front door in frustration.
It comes with its own plastic (silk?) flowers. Does that mean an other point?
ReplyDeleteNo, but I am beginning to wonder if that is a remote control on the upper right. Perhaps it opens like a garage door? But then again, there is still the little problem of birds lacking hands.
ReplyDeleteNice find, emilyt! Back in '65, my family took one of these things on a cross-country trip from NC to California and back. This is about the real size of the thing, so I'm not sure it's meant for birds.
ReplyDeleteNow that I look again (and I can't seem to quit staring at it), I see a string of lights? Does that count as holiday-ish?
ReplyDeleteI saw the string of lights also, but in the world of traveling trailers and RV parks, lights are used as a festive year around touch. So I would need more proof if it was strictly intended for holidays.
ReplyDeleteBut good call, SusanH
I get it about the lights. At our house, we call our same ol' string 'Fiesta Lights' after the New Year. Mostly, I just wanted emilyt to think I was trying to help a buddy...but now that she's gaining on me fast, she's on her own!
ReplyDeleteWe have one of these (identical right down to the curly wire hanger), and have had birds live in it. (Look carefully, it's wood, not plastic.) Zero points.
ReplyDeleteuh oh Craig@Ellis Hollow... I would not let emilyt know were you live.
ReplyDeleteI usually don't take points away. My bad call, so she gains. Although I probably would have been persuaded on the day I posted. You are a tough negotiator. I will enjoy your opinions.
Um, how do the birds get in?
