Nice video, there is absolutely nothing wrong with starting with the starling resistant entires (SREH). Martins can in and out of them easily and take a lot of the frustration out of fighting starlings. More and more martins are born and raised in houses with SREH and they can navigate them without a problem.

+Joe Kehoe Purple martins would normally be in your area during the summer for breeding. Especially in the east, they almost only nest in boxes and martin houses.
It actually the exact opposite of what you think! The Martins actually like to be around human interaction. They feel safer from predators knowing that humans are around. When ever you do a nest check they just flay away and watch, then when its over they just fly right back.
ruten45 Here's a link to an adjustable pole and also a website that has different pole options. As long as it's stable I don't see why a wooden pole wouldn't work, as long as it wasn't too high to clean it out and take down. www.amazon.com/Telescopic-Pole-PurpleMartinHouse/dp/B000VJG0IG www.bestnest.com/bestnest/purple_martin_house_poles.asp
DC: We tried for years to attract Martins using rinky dink houses and poles. We purchased a Troyer T 14 model from a fellow Martin Birder who made houses, poles and winches ($1,000.00) We installed the pole and within 1 month we had Martins checking it out. We have had a full colony for over 8 years now and really like taking care of the birds.

Have you ever come across - Daniliana Birdfly Babar - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some great things about it and my partner got great success with it.
