Our nature conservation programme contains various models for Birds that nest in cavities or recesses. They are particularly suitable for species that
prefer an open, balcony-type entrance area, e.g. Redstarts and Robins. The wide, open access to the clutch and the nestlings that is a feature of this
type of box means that such species are often under threat from predators. The predator-proof, open-ended box 2HW helps to prevent such attacks
and unprotected installation on trees can then be recommended.
VV Spotted Flycatcher (feeding) VV clutch of Black Redstart eggs
VV Open-fronted Nest Box 2H
Suitable for: Black Redstarts, Pied Wagtails, Grey Spotted Flycatchers, occasionally Robins and Wrens.
External dimensions: H 20 x W 15 x D 20 cm.
Interior of nesting chamber: l 12 cm.
This traditional type has proved to be highly effective. It should always be installed on the outside walls of houses,
barns, garden sheds, etc. It is designed to be hung so that the entrance is to one side (at an angle of 90° to the
wall). The front panel can be easily removed for cleaning.
Please do not hang this type of box on a tree or bush because small predators can enter through the
unprotected opening. If hung in the right place this open-fronted type will attract the species of Birds referred to
above. This model has been successfully used for decades.
Material: Nest Box made of SCHWEGLER wood-concrete.
Scope of delivery: Nest Box, galvanized hanger and Aluminum Nail.
Weight: approx. 2.5 kg.

Secure against Magpies and Jays (with nesting chamber insert).
Suitable for: Black Redstart, Pied Wagtail, Grey Spotted Flycatcher, occasionally Robin and Wren.
External dimensions: H 20 x W 20 x D 30 cm.
Nesting chamber: 15 x 21 cm.
This particularly deep box can be hung up on an open site or against outside walls.
A wooden insert, which can be removed for inspection and cleaning purposes, gives protection against predators
because nesting takes place at the far end of the box. The design of the 2HW also ensures quick occupation when
hung in relatively dark places due to the wide entrance. It can also be used to attract Dippers and Grey Wagtails
provided that the wooden insert is removed. The ideal location for Dippers and Grey Wagtails is near to natural
running water and under bridges.
