Hi Nana...Sorry to be so tardy but we lost power the other day and they my out of state company arrived so I have been really tied up!! Congrats on the BB's returning..!!

I am attaching a pic of the spooker I use. It is just plastic pvc joined with an elbow and attached with a clamp. Sorry I don't know the technical names...I just found all the stuff at the hardware store and put it all together. The hardest part was finding the mylar ribbon!! The nestbox is attached to a large metal pole so I had to attach it to the front of the box. Last year it was on a smaller aluminum pole and I attached the spooker to the back of the box.

I hope between Daves' pic above and this one you can come up with something that works for you!!

Good luck and let us know how everything works out for you.
