... almost.
This is the Solar Birdhouse. The idea is that the bird house sits there and collects energy from the sun all day and stores it in a battery, then at night, there is a kind of nightlight that lights up the perch on the front of the birdhouse.
According to the ad that was mailed to me:
Why would only humans make use of eco-friendly technology? Studio OOOMS designed a birdhouse with a solar panel on it's roof. During the day sunlight feeds the solar panel , charging a small battery inside. At twilight the transparent stick will light up and cast a tiny light on your garden.
This light attracts an easy nighttime snack for the bird; all she has to do is stick her beak out of the hole and wait for the buzz.
Can you spot the things that are wrong with this picture???
I can see a few problems, but it could also be great. My hope is that the insects will attract bats, and birds and bats will finally have it out for sky supremacy, instead of just pussy-footing around each other like they do now.
Pfft. Go bats! Mammals rule!
And yeah,here's one thing:

Have we given the state control of our children's lives?
Why isn't it OK for that woman to tell the state what medical treatment her child will or will not receive? If she had chosen to abort the child some 13 1/2 to 14 years ago, that would have been legal. When did she lose the right to raise her child the way she wishes?
The outcome is the same - the abortion kills a potential child, and the with-holding of medical treatment will likely kill the young teenager.
Are these mutually exclusive issues?
Isn't it interesting that the so-called "Right to Life" groups generally remain silent in cases like this, proving they're more interested in the fetus than the child?
I think you either replied to the wrong post, or you're a troll. Choose 1.
I've seen these birdhouses before. Some kids were waving them around at a techno party I went to once.
Why make it difficult for the neighborhood cats to hunt for food. This lighted birdhouse makes it easy!
