A Mystery

I found this cute green structure along a boulevard by a school yard where there are several community maintained gardens so I assume that this was installed for entertainment of some kind. There seems to be a solar collector on the top and that dark rectangle along the post is a glass viewing opening but the glass is all fogged up and opaque. It is a complete mystery as to what it is and I could find no info at all.

Well that is intriguing Pat. I'm guessing the black square could be like a periscope and the solar panels energise something going on in the little house below.. of course I could be wrong 😉

Could it have a camera and a nest? It reminds me of a birdhouse. Wishing you a happy day!

It could be a Martin house? Who knows what the solar collector powers? Perhaps this Martin house come with cable TV?

It is cute, but there seem to be too many openings to be a bird house.
Have a wonderful day!

I was thinking birdhouse too. I wonder if the intent was to let the viewer see what was going on inside a nest and the solar panels provide a low light. It is certainly a mystery!

I'm thinking birdhouse too.

The viewing glass must have worked at one point! Interesting.

Judging by the colour, the Irish Leprechauns are playing tricks on you.

Very intriguing... A periscope, maybe?

The latest bird highrise model with a viewing scope.

A solar powered birdhouse was my thought. Why not? :-)

Kay said...

Solar heated birdhouse?

Perhaps a way to disguise something else.

I do love mysteries and this is one that I'd truly like to solve! I find the little concrete steps up interesting too, is it made for squirrels?
