bluebirdsnbells, Thanks, i believe my pvc pole is a little bigger around then yours ( I worrie a lot about the snakes around here and felt that the wider/slipprier it is, the harder for them to climb it, Like you, I have not had problems while using the pvc poles so I don't use a baffle either. I always feed the bluebirds and all the others ( Many love mealie worms, I raise my own, so I'm not in short supply) But, If I were, I wouldn't worry here about them have an insufficient supply of food there are many trees shrubs grasses ect in the whole area where I live, never a short supply on other food sorces here. My Bluebird pair are still leading the young ones ( There are 4, they all made it) to the mealie worms but are really trying to get them to feed on there own which they are definately starting to do but they still beg the parents sometimes .. This is a photo I took of the pvc pole today in the rain ..
