A beautiful male Martin showed up here in south Georgia on January 8th at about noon !!! I am having trouble posting this on the Scout report . My earliest arrival so far .

That's great. I live only a few miles down the road out from Berlin so maybe mine will be here soon.
congratulations!!!!!

That is great news April.

Hi Dallas I hope your martins will be alone soon ! I could not believe my eyes , so keep yours open ! Hi James maybe it won't be long now before your first martins arrive back home. Thank you both ! I am trying to learn my way around this new website .

Hey April,

Thanks for sharing that great news with us! Your purple martin scout is very early for south Georgia! I remember you had a early martin in 2015, too.

When I lived in Havana, Florida which is about 16 miles west of Tallahassee, I had a martin arrive on January 5 one year.

I hope you have a great martin season!

Steve

This is exciting news, April! do you need help logging into your PMCA account? I can help you if that's the problem, or you can email your report to [email protected] and it will be posted for you tomorrow.

Hi Steve Thanks , this is a very early Martin for me and I was very surprised to say the least ! I guess we all need to get ready because they're coming ready or not and I wasn't quite ready but I'm working on finishing everything up now .

Hey Louise , Thanks , yes I am having a problem logging in on the Scout report page I can log in using my username and password on the forum but it will not work on the Scout report page , this is very exciting news . I will try and email it to you Thanks Louise .

Okay - I can reset usernames and passwords. Forum account info does not carry over to your regular PMCA account, which is good for scout reports, PMW, other projects and the PMCA online shop. We were not able to include forum accounts in the big merger. But if you email me the name and pword you want, I can reset your account so you have the same username and password for account as for the forum

April, your martin arrival is on the map! Thanks for reporting. One of the features I am enjoying on the new Scout-Arrival Study is the 'live' map - it's nice to be able to zoom in and see more detailed maps showing locations of arrivals.

Thanks Louise , I also like that feature . I thought winter had passed us by , but I was wrong !

Keep that Martin warm.

I hope mine are staying warm, we had 39 deg this morning. Warmed up nice so they are off feeding more of the same for the next couple days.

He had a clean bed packed fresh with new straw ! It got in the high 20's here ( it's cold outside )
