[CT Birds] window bird houses?

[Profatilov, Grace]

For Christmas, my boss gave me a bird house with a clear plastic back. You attach it to your window with suction cups and can see right into it. Has anyone ever had one of these and have birds actually nest in them?

I can't imagine why a bird would want to nest in something where humans can put their face right up next to them and observe them. It's just that my children are so excited about it and check it repeatedly throughout the day. I wasn't sure if perhaps their constant checking might discourage birds from using it or if it's a lost cause regardless of what they do.
