Still no Sign of Bird

Check the bird house recently. There is still no sign of bird staying in the bird house.

Using the temperature data logger, I noticed that the internal condition is very good. The temperature is below 30 deg C and the humidity is 85%. All the micro conditions in the bird house are good.

So the only problem now is the sound. How to advertise to the birds to inform them that there is a good bird house for them to build their nest and lay their eggs. I have changed a few external sound already but the result was not good.

When I was standing in front of my bird house, I noticed that external sounds were coming from all directions. I can hear external sound coming from the opposite houses. I realized that the sounds from the opposite houses are echos from my external hexagon tweeter. Since most of the houses around my bird house are empty, they can create a lot of echos.

I have decided to shut down the hexagon tweeter and install two bazooka tweeters facing directly to one of the bird house nearby with a lot of birds. Hopefully, I might attract some of the birds from the bird house. ;)

I have also changed a new sound. Let see what is the result in a few weeks time.

Bird Nest Price

Received email from my friends. They were talking about current bird nest price. They were very happy because the price is going up.

The price of bird nest has risen to about RM3,500 per kg from about RM2,800 per kg. I think I will go up to RM4,500 very soon.
