Barn Swallow Bird House Plans

Barn Swallows nest almost exclusively on manmade structures: on bridges, wharves, and buildings; in mine shafts and culverts. Originally, Barn Swallows built their nests on cliff faces and in caves and rock crevices, but now such nest sites are rare. This simple nesting perch may be placed under the eaves, inside a garage or barn, or on the side of a building. It offers protection from elements and requires no maintenance.
