Triptych birdhouse warmer
three panel IR reflector (triptych) at birdhouse causes birdhouses to be warmer during winter so more birds live | |
You may have seen three sided sun reflectors used for tanning, before people knew better, during the 20th century.
Just put something like that outside a birdhouse to warm the birdhouse, that way the birds are comfier, might reside longer (more viewing!). If people liked they could just have a highly
IR reflective visible transparent actual painted triptych under the IR reflective coating.
It could be a kitschy or tasteful triptych as the birdhouse owner prefers.

Most birds that need to stay warm in winter fly towards
more equatorial climates. Haven't you noticed? |

It does sound like rotisserie, but it would confuse cats greatly [+] |

I stuck a metal tin thing up for the birds this year. They have more
intelligence than me and abandoned it when it got too hot! |
