Schwegler 2M bird box

Nest Box 2M
Free-hanging, to protect against cats and deter martens
 
Like the Nest Box 1B, this box also has a brood chamber with an internal diameter of 12 cm. It differs, however, in that it can be freely suspended and has a conical roof. These features protect against cats and deter martens. It is very popular in private gardens and especially around fruit trees, mainly in areas where the trees are short and have many branches.
The front panels of the 1B and 2M are interchangeable. The different sized entrance holes can be matched to the predominant species of birds in the locality. The 2M is supplied with the FG hanger.
Also available with additional front panel for protection against martens and/or FT & FO hangers.
