This is a birdhouse located near Fisher Union on the UNCW campus grounds. The main purpose of birdhouses are to help local cavity nesting bird populations by giving them a place to build a nest when their preferred places are in low availability. These houses also help migrating birds in the winter as they provide a warm place to rest. Having a birdhouse does impact more than just bird populations, as it also introduces a higher population of insectivores, thus reducing the populations of insects like mosquitoes.
