Purple Martins

[Dee Gee]

Has anyone seen any Purple Martins yet this year?  I haven't noticed any around my house yet, they are usually here before now.

We had 2 scouts cruising around at the farm last weekend..

Had 7 show up a couple weeks ago and had about that many more show up yesterday.   I have 7 houses so will have more show up.   Just like women they probably stopped to shop.

We have five that have been here (Edmond, OK) about ten days.  They probably are not too pleased with our early spring wintry conditions the past week, but this morning I hear them busily scouting around and choosing new homes.

I have not seen any scouts here yet, sounds like they are running late this year.

Was out at our lake property and we have a full house of them.. chattering and gossiping to beat the band. I love them ..
Mark is going to put up another house too I think. Dad Cookson made one that is HUGE ( we call it the Carlton Ritz..) so hopefully we will have even more out there.  He has his full at this house too I noticed last night.

Finally a pair of Martins showed up this morning, I was beginning to think I wasn't going to get any this year.

Maybe you haven't been dancing naked under the full moon enough Dee Gee..
