Is the see thru glass one sided so the birds do not frighten?

No, as one-way doesn't work for this application, but a secluded room and a curtain or piece of fine cloth between the house and the window work well.

the glass is clear, but don't put the red feeder liquid in these. read about it online, the dye is bad for the hummingbirds.

The one I have is just a flat piece of glass with the wood frame around it. There are no bevels on the edges.

I just put them on and they look clear to me but they say that the birds see them in color. They seem to have helped a little but I still get birds hitting my windows. Not as much as last year but still putting holes in the screens.

Yes you view through your home window right into the bird house! No bird has even looked at mine I would place on a fence away from the window or use in a window were there is not much activity

The view is not totally blocked. It has no fabric only the wood. We have 2 of these screens and love them.the smell mentioned by some is gone in a very short time and we feel they are an excellent value.

You might want to purchase a one-way film to put on the inside of the window. You see the birds, they don't see you or your cats.

No. It's the same on both sides, perfectly clear. I use Gallery Glass paints on them to make stained glass paintings that I put in my windows. It works wonderful for this as they adhere to the window beautifully and are easily removed. Good luck. This is a good product.

No, there's clear back to the bird house to see the nesting. The birds can see into your house . I'm not sure it works let. I just installed it.

Yes. Unfortunately it is not one way glass but it seems to work just fine. Just move carefully in the room exposed to the viewing side.

Yes it has two one one side that have a retaining bar to keep your bird from lifting out the bowl

If you stretch it out like a fence, I don't think so, even though it is hard to see with human eyes sometimes. You could even add some silver reflective tape which will help the deer know it's there too. However I also used it bunched up on the ground over small plants and I witnessed our cat trap a bird under the netting. It got tangled up primarily because it was startled. and did easily find its way out once I removed the cat. So in general likely bird-safe. Safer than windows for sure.

No. It has a hanger which is what we prefer, as it puts the birds right at the window.

Yes. There is a seam. I have it facing away from the entrance to the room...once you put the glass filter, you can't see it from the other sides...only from the side where the seam is.

Yes, that is the whole point of the clear plexi back on this. My grandmother has had nests in hers for the past two years... I think in winter the birds may even get a bit of extra warmth from the window. Can easily be taken apart to clean between seasons.

We placed ours at outside edge of large picture window, and keep the drape partially closed so they do not see through back. So far have only saw one small bird checking it out but no residents so far. Its a great idea, but I would like to hear from someone who actually has birds actually using the birdhouse.

The paneling is open wood working. There is no transparent covering so it is the same on both sides. The swirl design is such that, even from a short distance, one mainly sees the wood working, not what's behind it. I use the screen to hide a hot water tank in my renovated basement. A window above lets in light. Some may think the design is "busy" but I like the semi-openness. The screen has a clean and unique look. I'm very happy with my choice.
