Starling populations have declined dramatically in recent years and are now on the Red List of birds of high conservation concern. Loss of habitat is one of the major pressures on this species and household renovations and new buildings offer much fewer nesting sites than have previously been available. Providing these birds with a safe and secure habitat and nesting environment is a great way to help ensure their future survival.
The Starling Box is a large, solid box made of insulating concrete with an internal nesting space, which can be incorporated into the fabric of a building as it is built or renovated. The box is designed especially to be unobtrusive and aesthetically pleasing.
This box is made to order and faced in brick to match your building. For certain brick types it may be necessary for you to send your own bricks to be used on the face of the box (six required for each box). This is also recommended if you require the bricks to match your own exactly, as slight variations between batches do occur. Please let us know your brick code or name at the time of ordering. We will then let you know if bricks will need to be provided or if they can be sourced by the manufacturer.
The box is supplied unpointed so it can be matched as closely as possible to the building.
For every Starling Box purchased, a donation is made to the RSPB.
