A group of plant units 2 for planting terrestrial and aquatic plants are arranged in the float 1, a balancing ball assembly is arranged at the bottom of the float 1, and the balancing ball assembly passes through the center of the float 1 and is connected to the birdhouse main body, and a detachable birdhouse roof cover 32 is arranged on the top of the birdhouse main body to protect the inhabiting birds from wind and rain, facilitate the staff to add bird food, and also facilitate maintenance.

[0021] The habitat unit 3 includes several groups of compartment units. The bird house body is provided with several groups of compartment units along its circumferential direction. Each compartment unit includes several compartments 33 arranged along the height direction of the bird house body, which can be used for birds to build nests. One of the compartment units is a water body unit 4. Each compartment 33 in the water body unit 4 is provided with a water tank 43. The compartment unit is equipped with a bird house door 39. The bird house door 39 can be opened and closed to facilitate the replacement and installation of batteries. The sanitary conditions in the bird house and the water storage conditions of the water tank 43 can also be checked, and timely maintenance and replacement can be carried out.

[0022] A filter structure 34 is provided at the bottom of the compartment 33 so that the excrement of the birds can be discharged downwards; the filter structure 34 is a hollow fence structure, and the fence posts are cylindrical. The spacing between the fence posts should be controlled within an appropriate range, which can provide a safe resting space for the birds and facilitate their nesting activities.

[0023] A feeding trough 35 is provided on the external platform of each compartment 33 , and a granary 31 is provided inside the bird house roof 32 having a cavity. The feeding trough 35 is connected to the granary 31 through a bird feed pipe 36 .

[0024] The granary 31 is divided into a plurality of areas, each of which stores different types of bird feed. Each area is connected to a bird feed pipe 36. The connection port between each area and the bird feed pipe 36 is a conical structure, which is convenient for the bird feed to fall under the influence of gravity. Under the influence of gravity, the bird feed enters the feeding trough 35 along the bird feed pipe 36. However, due to the influence of pressure and friction, the bird feed cannot overflow the feeding trough 35. When the bird eats, the food level of the feeding trough 35 drops, and the bird feed will flow into the feeding trough 35 under the action of gravity, thereby providing a food source for the birds for a long time. A perch 37 for birds to rest is provided on the outward end surface of the external platform of each compartment. Bird nests are generally built by birds to raise their offspring. Due to their physiological structure and behavioral habits, birds generally rest and sleep on tree branches, and the perch 37 serves as a branch.

The interior of the cylinder body 2 is separated by a group of partition plates 1 into a platform 22 for planting aquatic plants. A group of through holes 25 are opened on the aquatic plant platform 22. The interior of the cylinder body 1 is separated by a group of partition plates 2 into a platform 21 for planting terrestrial plants. A group of air holes 24 are opened on the platform 21 for planting terrestrial plants, which provide buoyancy and are directly connected to the air holes.

[0031] The plant unit 2 should fit closely with the lower part 27 of the float to prevent water from entering, while the upper part 26 of the float should have a suitable gap to allow air to enter, thereby ensuring that the required buoyancy support is provided for the bird house while the air holes 24 function.

[0032] In this example, terrestrial plants can be selected from plants that bear fruit and have bright colors. Bright colors can attract birds to come for food and roost. Different types of fruit-bearing plants can be planted to stagger the fruit maturity period so that birds can find food for a longer period of time in a year. Aquatic plants mainly play the role of purifying water quality and can also provide food sources for water birds.
