I hope he's one of your boys!!!! That would make this a great day! My little guy finally came in today with a cute girl. They seem to be staying this time. I am not sure if it's the same guy I have been seeing and just waiting for some company! They have been checking everything out all morning. They are even sitting on my feeding tray. I think they like it! Keep us posted. I bet that's your boy! :grin: :grin:

Congrats and best of luck to you this season.

To the rest of you landlords down there in Texas; keep the scouts there. Again calling for possiblility of ice for us here in Arkansas later this week. I am afraid there is still plenty of winter left.

Dick,

Congratulations! Gosh I'm happy for you guys down south. To me, it makes the wait go by a little faster hearing all of you get your PMs back. Let's all pray for good weather.
Good luck!

Dick,

We are up to twelve martins now, up from six a week ago. its always slow this early in the season, heck one year we didn't see our first ones until about now.

You'll be swamped before you know it.
