"My birds keeps have hollowed out a beautiful nesting box. These are well worth the purchase!."

— JanetM

"This product is a piece of bamboo with both ends covered with a roughly cut and shaped piece of an aluminum can. It was bough and directly thrown away. If you take it off (nailed on) you can see the other side with a pop label printed on it (or some other drink)"
