It sure doesn’t look like plastic!

The jury is still out, but so far the sparrows have left the PVC boxes alone. And they are usually a big problem in this area.
Glad I could brighten your day – seeing the BB sure made me happy!

Just loved this post. I have not seen a blue bird since my childhood days in WI. I will have to try that PVC pipe birdhouse! We have lots of sparrows that I would like to discourage. I have seen some of these designed for chickadees as well that were successful, too. Thanks for brightening my day.

Wow, at first glance, that PVC house had me fooled…I was sure it was birch! I’m so jealous that you have bluebirds. I’m really hoping our Wilson’s Warblers nest here again this spring, about as close as we come to charismatic colorful bird species here. Did I mention that I’m impressed with the appearance of that PVC house?

I love the PVC bird house. How wonderful to be able to attract Bluebirds. I hope that they decide to stay….that way we can enjoy your pictures of them.
