Pin Box Cover

Here are two photos of the aluminum cover that I made for my pin box. After countless times of clearing the start of nests in the box, I folded a sheet of thin aluminum and used pop rivets to hold the shape that I wanted. The front lip on the bottom has foam to help it seal off any cracks in that area. John

Great idea. I guess our Texas birds don't like pin boxes as I have never had one build in mine. But good to keep in mind if they do.
