Nestled right in the heart of Ogden city, there are over 100 artistic bird abodes waiting to be discovered. This year’s 30th annual birdhouse exhibit has over 100 new birdhouses, all on display along Birdhouse Trail at the Ogden Nature Center, 966 West 12th Street, Ogden.  The new additions have been added to over 100 permanent birdhouses, making for a spectacular and colorful display of structures created by local artists.

From bird houses that remind us of Palm Spring’s midcentury modern houses to beautifully crafted cabins an bungalows to seashell and seashore structures, there is something to please visitors of all ages.

The general public is invited to tour the exhibit during the Nature Center’s regular business hours: 9-5 Monday through Friday and Saturday from 9-4.  Regular admissions rates apply - $5 for adults and $3 for children.  Members of the Ogden Nature Center enjoy free admission, and memberships are available online at www.ogdennaturecenter.org or can be purchased in person at the Visitor Center.

This year’s competition was judged by local artists Deb Marin and Michal Onyon, and birder George Muller.
