A new exterior camera has been added to the New York Wild website. Little heads are peeking out and fledging should be soon. Enjoy their show. It won't be long now and they will be gone...these are the golden days of Purple Martins.

This is a mesmerizing setup -- watching martins and the waves come in along the shore -- and making me late for an appointment!

Very Nice, Duck! My last babes fledged about a month ago, and parents have been long gone. It's a long time till next February!

Hey John, sorry you were late for work but I share with you being late for many things when something interesting is happening out there. Nothing deters me from my Martins.

Hi Joe,
Isn't it just too quiet when they all have left the "theater"? Takes me several days to adjust to the quiet. Feb is a long time to wait for their return, I have to wait until March but it is worth it. I have to paint the T-14 this year too. Have a fun winter!!

Thank you for a wonderful site - and sight. Ours have all gone off now - we still have some 'visitors' and fly-overs. Lonesome without them.
