The diagonal board under the piece of Plexiglas is the mechanism that holds the window in the closed position. There is a smaller one that allows the window to be slightly open to allow for fresh air to circulate on cooler nights.
A second pic of same window. Window on other side of house looks the same.
This is one of the open windows in the fully open position.
My husband added a wooden knob at the top to make the window easier to raise and lower.

Not sure if you can tell from the photos but the windows my husband designed are fully functional. They can be opened all the way when it is warm outside or partially when it is slightly chilly. They can also be completely closed when the temps drop to keep out the north winds. Of course they aren't air tight like house windows but they block a lot of drafts. You can see the wooden know at the top center and just barely see the diagonal brace at the bottom right that holds the window in the closed position.
My girls like to sit in the doorway and look out
Our Nestboxes, well not ours but the chickens nest boxes. It's a repurposed plastic shelf unit.
