Martin Colony History: First martins in 2008. Currently have housing for 36 pairs. Usually get about 28.

Even though I had to move my housing this year, the martins have apparently found it. I had a pair on Saturday and Sunday there was an extra female! Still fighting sparrows but they are going away a little at a time :twisted:
