Martin Colony History: 1 gourd rack with 24 gourd capacity. 2018, my 11th year hosting martins.
18 pair in 2017.

Went out to feed and water the HOSP's in my bait trap and saw a pair of martins on the gourd rack!
Best April Fools day I've had. 41 degrees but should get into the upper 50's. My season has begun.
PMCA Member, Single Gourd Rack, 2019 marks 12 years hosting martins.

Martin Colony History: Had my site up to 22 gourds of which most (+/-3) stayed occupied.
Downsized to 17 gourds due to back surgeries. Had 14 families in 2017 but did not do nest checks due to health. Feeling better in 2018 and hoping for a good year.

Yay Gene!
It's always a great feeling isn't it? Have a wonderful pm season!!
