I put my house up in Montgomery last week because I had seen some scouts. It took the sparrows about 1 hours to fill the rooms with dead grass, etc. Haven't seen a PM again.

A nice gourd tree came with our house in the Kowaliga bridge area. I Am new to PM's but interested. Let us know when we should hang the gourds. Thanks, Tom

Tom,

Based on last year, it's time... Had the first scout on the 1st of March.. I have commercially made apartment houses and great colonies most years..

Great birds, very sociable and fun to be around.. Good luck..
