40 Bizarre Avian Abodes

From Snow-Mice Bird Abodes to Brass Bullet Birdhouses

— March 18, 2013 — Art & Design
Birdhouses are a fun way to offer up a designated place for these little winged creatures to eat peacefully outdoors, and if you're looking for a more quirky and out-of-the-ordinary design, then these bizarre avian abodes will definitely catch your attention.

While ordinary birdhouse designs are simply made to resemble a miniature version of an ordinary house, these over-the-top avian abodes however, are extremely unique in their structure and design because they reference all sorts of things from modern pop culture. These structural designs feature avian abodes that are shaped like such things as well-known gaming characters to glittery Micky Mouse figures, and they will not only attract birds to your door but passerbys as well.

If you're in the mood to deck out your back garden or front porch with some eclectically designed birdhouses, then these bizarre and visually striking avian abodes are just for you.
