A large percentage of birds in the world will actively look and choose an enclosed structure to live in. Bluebirds for example, depend heavily on manmade bluebird boxes to lay their large cluster of eggs. If were not for the efforts of humans mounting bluebird boxes in the early 20th Century, bluebirds might not be around today.

Birdhouses, bluebird houses, nestboxes and platforms offer many benefits to the environment. These structures help birds to survive, and in turn, birds serve to keep weeds and insects in check, pollinate flowering plants, fertilize the soil, disperse seeds, and add biodiversity to our world.

Basically, a house for birds is an internal nest compartment which uses a roof, floor and walls to form a box-shaped "house." But it's more than just a house, it's a "home" for birds. The primary purpose of a birdhouse is to help birds and the environment. And it's easy to do, as anyone can offer a little time and effort by mounting a birdhouse somewhere in their local habitat where a motherbird can find it.

The IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria classifies species at high risk of global extinction into nine separate categories: Not Evaluated, Data Deficient, Least Concern, Near Threatened, Vulnerable, Endangered, Critically Endangered, Extinct in the Wild and Extinct. https://www.iucnredlist.org/

Additionally, the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the guidance and policies of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) define 15 categories of listing statuses for species. As a general rule, IPaC uses the term "listed species" to generically refer to species that may belong to any of the categories. https://ipac.ecosphere.fws.gov/status/list
