Dark Corridor In the Bird House

Taken 12th August 2015
The small, brightly lit areas have no windows or bars separating them from the visitor area but the small waxbills/finches which live in them don\'t fly out into the visitor area which is very dark (though the birds will fly out and fly between sections briefly).

Do you have list of birdhouse species?
