Diane Rivers, affectionately known as the "bird house lady," is a true bird-lover, who gained a tremendous amount of bird knowledge on her quest to create new and unique birdhouses. Her birdhouses are spaciously built to the specifications of most sparrows, bluebirds and chickadees, or other birds in the Northeastern United States. Each one is a work of art incorporating treasured objects from the area where she lives in upstate New York .
