Celebrating urban wildlife, “The Chickadee” is a handsome nest box for a handsome bird. Its materials and dimensions were carefully chosen to appeal to the preferences of this tiny but hardy songbird, and to discourage unwanted predators. Arranged whimsically in groupings, this installation made wildlife habitat accessible and informative.
