It's that extra leg bones that makes everything backwards to our legs. Awkward birdhouse anatomy doesn't help make it any more intuitive! π
If it is sitting on its butt with legs out in front, the toes would stick up. If the legs are down holding a perch, then toes would point down. Since itβs a birdhouse, it would probably be mounted on a perch-like structure, so the feet are correct. But when itβs on a shelf, it looks like the bird is sitting.
The best solution would be to overhang the feet from the front of the shelf as if it were gripping the edge; then it would provide a better perspective.
I guess there really is some psychology to product facing... π€
Yes, that would work.
