Yes it does stop some rain, but you're still going to get wet, especially the higher you go up, due to less coverage. Most birds don't have the luxury of being at the very bottom for their own security reasons, this means that even more wind and water will reach them. This is not only an annoyance to them, but could also potentially damage their nest, whereas a bird house is built with this in mind.</blockquote>
