Birdhouse Hunting: Several sets of seven

If you like birdhouses, keep your eyes open as you drive county road 45, a lovely motorcycling route if I ever saw one.

(It is south of, and runs parallel to, Highway 3, and is home to the Seven Sisters (hills and valleys); I usually pick it up at Mount Salem, SW of Aylmer, and ride east.)


A set of seven Peterson houses will appear on your left almost immediately after you come up out of one deep valley, and before you reach Kings Lake and highway 59.


Another two sets of seven (and several other singles and doubles) appear on E. S. Dechamp’s property situated on the east side of highway 59 near Langton.




Dozens more birdhouses can be found in one spot, and for sale at pretty reasonable prices, outside a productive workshop one mile east of Courtland on the north side of highway 3. Many houses are well-weathered and include occupants!

Had I stopped to photograph every birdhouse on yesterday’s ride, I’d still be out there.
