Although a mill has stood on this site since 1640, ''De Bird'' was built in the 18th century. It was built to drain the De Burd polder, which was part of the Groot Jetsma farm. ''De Bird'' was built for A J de Jong. A later owner was Simon Koopmans, giving the mill its alternate name of ''Koopmans Molen''. In 1878, the mill was sold at auction for ƒ500.〔 (Click on "Geschiedenis" to view.)〕 Restorations of the mill were undertaken in 1950, 1960 and 1964.〔 In November 1972, the mill was damaged in a storm. It was during the subsequent repair work that the roundhouse roof was tiled with pantiles.〔 A further restoration was undertaken in 2004, during which the roundhouse roof was boarded, as it had been previously. The mill is not complete, as the Archimedes' screw is missing, although it can turn by wind. The mill was officially reopened on 18 November 2005.〔 Previously in the ownership of the Gemeente Boarnsterhim,〔 ''De Bird'' is now owned by Stichting Poldermolens De Lege Midden ((英語:Lege Midden Polder Mills Society)).〔 (Click on "Algemeen" to view.)〕
