Always nice to see a project like that. Would also be a good project for a new woodworker, do a useful project, and gain experience. Best part is one can be done with hand tools only.
Don't knows if he still does it, but years ago (when I went down Main Street a lot more often than now), a guy used to park a pickup in the town parking lot, several times during the summer, backed toward the sidewalk. The truck was loaded with bird houses. Never stopped to double-check but likely they were mostly meant for indoor decoration, because I could tell they were nicely decorated. Price was $25 each, and as far as I know he always left with an empt truck bed.
