We might all think all wine pretty much tastes the same, of course barring any bottle that costs under 3 dollars! A non wine expert usually looks at the packaging when looking for a wine bottle to buy. Now-a-days, it's not just about the wine bottle or how attractive it looks, it's also about the wine box that it may or may not come in.
This one of a kind wine bottle comes with a box that can be used as a bird house when you're done with it. Similar to the wine bottle box that turns into a serving tray, or the wine bottle box that turns into a robot, the Portugal winery Companhia das Lezírias makes the wine called 'Tyto Alba' which features an owl head on the wine bottle label.
Inside the wine box, the owl on the label looks like it is peaking out of the hole on the bird house. The Portugal winery uses actual owls on their vineyards to protect their crops from crop-destroying pests, which is why they support a preservation program that has led to an increase of birds on their property. The design of the combination of the wine label and wine box bird house was designed by Rita Rivotti Wine Branding & Design.
The wine box bird house comes with a hole pre-drilled in it for birds to enter and exit easily, along with a small hole below where you can place a small stick for birds to perch onto. You can even get the box alone without the logo, wine bottle, and the holes drilled if you'd like to drill them yourself.
While a bit too small for owls to hide-out inside of, a number of other smaller birds would feel right at home inside the wine box bird house. You'll just need to come up with an answer for when your neighbors ask you why you have a bunch of bird houses in your backyard.
