I would buy two way mirror film and put on window for privacy.

It just doesn’t fully make sense to me.

Hello. I was wondering if it would be safe with just 3 suction cups. Wouldn’t it fall after a short period of time or even if it is windy?

I am looking to build these as a gift for Christmas. Do you have the dimensions for all the cuts?

One way Reflective film on the plexiglass or even the window inside the house will certainly keep the birds from seeing the observer. Also, consider adding a perch, either a dowel or small shelf as landing area.

In reply to Wendy Reaux. HI Wendy, I did have "some" success. They built a nest in the box, but abandoned it shortly after. I had someone suggest that I apply a tinted film to the glass to make it harder for the birds to see out, but we could still see in.

In reply to DOCMO. It's an excellent gift..! I did have some birds start a nest in there, however they abandoned it shortly after they built it. Someone suggested that I apply some sort of tinted film to the plexi glass to block the birds from seeing out, but allow others to see in. I may have to make a small adjustment to mine next spring...!

Yeah, Daris – did the birds ever come. Great project. I think I’ll knock this one out as a gift!

I’m dying to know if it will work!!! I was going to buy one but for the price, I’d rather my husband make one. I also saw where of them came with a mirror type paper to put on the window so that they can’t see you. Please lets us know if you are successful with this!

I drilled a screw right threw the suction cup. I used a smaller screw. The suction cups had a little nub on the end so it worked for me. I got the largest ones I could find though. I think I found them at Hobby Lobby.
