Coates WatersEdge Suite Purple Martin House 3 Floor, 6 Room Mansion

Product Description

The Coates WatersEdge Suite Purple Martin house is a 3 floor, 6 room mansion. Durable! Long Lasting! Top of the Line Bird Houses! That describes the WatersEdge Suite.

Luxury living at its birdly best! The martins enter through a (SREH) starling resistant entry hole. The 6 inch x 12 inch suite concept utilizes two compartments per family offering an entry room and a nesting room. From the entry room they travel 90 degrees through a 2 1/4 inch opening into the nesting room with an elevated sub floor. Larger compartments yield larger families! The entry room creates a protective staging area for the young birds prior to flight. Your Purple Martin families will want for nothing!

Besides luxury, it is designed with security in mind. Owls, coons, and hawks predatory attempts will be minimized. WatersEdge Suites offer the added protection of an insulated attic and nesting trays along with all the regular Coates features. Assembly required.
