Since moving into the mountains, I’ve appreciated the wildlife more and more – especially the wild birds that live in the surrounding woods. To increase our birdwatching opportunities, in addition to several bird feeders (like our new smart bird feeder), we also have a few birdhouses on trees around the yard. Unfortunately, we’ve had a few that have fallen from some recent storms, so I was excited to have the opportunity to review the VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest. In today’s VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest review, I’ll dive into its features, set-up, and installation options. I’ll also share my experience to help you decide if this birdhouse is right for your garden or yard.
VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest Overview
Available on Amazon or the VINGUYS website, the VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest is crafted from durable, eco-friendly pine wood with a weatherproof iron roof. Its standout feature is the adjustable entrance, which can be customized to suit various bird species, making it a versatile addition to any backyard.
I received a complimentary birdhouse in exchange for this honest VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest review. All opinions are my own.

VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest Unboxing and Assembly
The VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest arrives fully assembled and comes with mounting hardware for various mounting options. This makes it easy to quickly install the birdhouse in a variety of locations. Made with smooth wood pine and an iron-topped roof, this birdhouse delivers a timeless, natural look.
Since the birdhouse comes pre-assembled, you won’t need tools to put it together. However, you’ll need a screwdriver or drill if you plan on using the screws to mount the support bracket to a wall, fence, or tree.
How to Install the VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest
VINGUYS makes installation easy by offering multiple mounting options. The birdhouse includes a mounting bracket that supports:
- Tree Mounting: Use the provided strap to secure the bracket to a tree trunk or branch.
- Wall Mounting: Attach the bracket to a wall or fence using the included screws.
- Pole Mounting: Secure the bracket to a pole with the provided pole brackets.
To install, mount the bracket in your desired location. Then place the birdhouse on top and secure it from the bottom using the included thumbscrew. Pulling the metal ring allows you to adjust the birdhouse’s angle for optimal viewing. We mounted the birdhouse on a tree in our front yard, positioning it within view of the kitchen window for easy bird-watching.
Tip: Place the birdhouse in a quiet, shaded area with some tree cover to make it more appealing to nesting birds, and ensure it’s at least 5–10 feet off the ground to deter predators.
Cleaning the VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest
The birdhouse’s side door is a thoughtful design feature that makes cleaning the birdhouse easy. My other bird feeders either don’t offer any way to clean inside the birdhouse or have to be cleaned from the top. The T-Nest’s 180° side-opening door is much easier to access. For additional security, the side door is held closed by two small clips.
To clean the birdhouse, simply open the door, scrape out any old nesting materials, rinse with water, and let dry. The process takes just a few minutes and creates a clean, inviting space for the next nesting season.
Four holes located in the bottom corners of the birdhouse provide additional ventilation to help keep the interior dry and hygienic.
VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest Review – My Experience
I love how easy it is to install the VINGUYS Birdhouse. It’s nice that they offer several mounting options and I think the mounting bracket is really innovative, especially the ability to adjust the angle of the birdhouse when it is mounted.
The pine wood and iron roof design blends well with the surrounding pine forest landscape. The style also matches the VINGUYS smart bird feeder we recently installed. The birdhouse build feels sturdy and has already handled multiple wind and rainstorms without issue.
After installing the birdhouse, I waited a few weeks to see if any birds had made it their new home. Since there weren’t any apparent signs of a nest, I adjusted the entrance to a smaller size in hopes of attracting some of the smaller birds I’ve noticed visiting the bird feeder. The ability to adjust the entrance size without tools is a standout feature as it allows you to change the size according to the different species you see in your yard. There’s a small magnet built in to help lock it into place and you can noticeably feel when it is positioned correctly.
The iron roof can get warm in direct sunlight, so I’d recommend placing the birdhouse in a partially shaded spot to keep the interior comfortable for nesting birds. Overall, the design is both functional and attractive, making it a great choice for both birds and bird watchers.
Final Thoughts
While we’re still waiting for birds to make this birdhouse their new home, it’s still been a nice addition to our yard. Birdhouses are a great way to invite wild birds like bluebirds, finches, and other small birds to your make your yard an attractive place to nest.
The VINGUYS Birdhouse T-Nest provides a safe, durable, and customizable home for wild birds. Its adjustable entrance, predator-proof design, and easy-clean features make it a standout option for anyone looking to attract nesting birds. The eco-friendly pine wood and weatherproof iron roof ensure it’s built to last, while the multiple mounting options offer flexibility for any outdoor space.
