Technology : Evaluation of my Birdhouse
I said in my specification that the birdhouse should have a cover or roof, and looking at the product you can see that it has. So this was one specification that I met. Another specification that I met was that it should be made out of a weatherproof material. Acrylic is a waterproof and I have frozen and defrosted it several times (10) and. This is the same I believe, as about 10 years of use in the garden in England. Also when it rained I checked up on the condition of the birdhouse to see if any water was getting in. None that I saw got in. Also to make saw of this fact I put it in the shower to simulate a very heavy down pour of rain. Again no water got in unless you turned the birdhouse on its side. This brought me to the conclusion the if there was a very strong wind and heavy rain some of the water might get in. So in short I think that I can say that the birdhouse is weatherproof.
