Fred, thanks – & yes this morning after church we went out to check the two Gilwood boxes I have out & the one display box. The very 1st box we made & had up last season was correct in the wire’s location – it had a BB nest early and one TRES nest later on. The other two were the 1 1/2″ opening(which is why I caught the starling I’m sure) and we were able to bend the wire down enough to get it the correct distance. My hubby was a welder by profession & uses some left-over brass braising wire, which is plenty heavy but we were indeed able to bend it just enough. Boy, you’re never too old to learn – check & recheck everything!!
