Send some up North. I got mine on Feb 20 last year. Based on what I seen on the forum, they may be a week early.............. Any thoughts?

Good luck with the season.

:shock: I hope this is not an early season as I still sit here Martinless in Baton Rouge. I usually have in mid to late January. :-(

Seriously, I'm happy for all who got them already.

Faith...I have plenty. Patience.....I am a little short on that.

My PMs are a bit earlier than usual...I had three yesterday and six today...caught me with my "pants down". I thought it would be a little while before I got a crowd. I hurried up and got my gourds up...I still have to add two more.....And the "subbies" have not even shown up yet!!

Still waiting down here in LaPlace. They didn't show up until Feb. 25th last year. I have a feeling they will come sooner this year. I replaced my old PM house and put up an additional house so now they will have 2 new homes to choose from. The hosps are already landing on them and looking at me. They have no idea whats in store for them.

My friend Joe, great news on your returning Martins. I have a nephew that lives down there. Wish I could get him into the Martin hobby. If I ever went down there I would probably wreck from looking at all the Martin colonies. Would the cop believe me if I told him that?
