In a world where natural nesting sites are dwindling, the Wildlife World Barrel Bird Nester stands tall as a beacon of hope for small wild birds. Our UK-designed Barrel Bird Nester offers a secure and inviting space for birds to nest and roost in the heart of your garden. Crafted from Sustainably Sourced Timber sourced from well-managed forests, this nester is a testament to our commitment to sustainability and the well-being of our feathered friends.

Key Features:

  • Safe Nesting Haven: The deep cavity and secured lid of the Barrel Bird Nester provide a safe haven for small wild birds, protecting them from potential predators. The thoughtful design prioritizes the safety and security of the nesting occupants.
  • Versatile Appeal: Ideal for a variety of small wild garden birds, the Barrel Nester welcomes occupants such as robins, wrens, and other charming species. Its universal appeal makes it a popular choice among different bird communities in your garden.
  • Strategic Placement: To optimize the effectiveness of the nester, ensure it is located away from feeders and bird baths. Position it between 1.5 – 3 meters high, facing between north and southeast. This strategic placement enhances its allure to potential avian occupants.
  • Annual Maintenance: Keeping the Barrel Nester clean is a breeze. Perform an annual cleaning in late Summer/early Autumn to ensure a welcoming environment. The roof, secured with a single screw, can be easily removed for maintenance tasks.
  • Aging Gracefully: The barrel and hoops of the nester age naturally, acquiring an authentic look that blends seamlessly with your garden's aesthetic. For added protection, consider treating the wood with an acrylic exterior wood finish every 2-3 years to prolong its life.

Transform your garden into a haven for small birds with the Wildlife World Barrel Bird Nester - a symbol of conservation, sustainability, and avian harmony.
