Martin Colony History: Started trying to attract purple martins in 2012! It's finally happened in 2017! 5 years!!! ASY male and SY female came May 1st, fledged 5 babies!
I got 3 sparrows today in my (spare-o-door and the ground trap!) So glad they started to go in. Just have 2 or 3 more to get!
Any more sightings at your house today?

Way to go Kyler, keep getting them!
Nothing today. It is very cool now. Yesterday super windy and 58'. I'm sure feeding is on there mind. I just got up and it's 43' at 5:00 a.m. Suppose to get in the middle 60's today. So there will be a few more bugs out. I hope they visit today but IDK. Chances of rain Monday and Tuesday. Then finally looks like spring may start here.
Keep at those sparrows. It's never ending

IDK looks like I see a spot but not a good enough pic to tell for sure. SY males have the dark areas scattered on breast. Some SY males are hard to tell. But look for the darker spots. They will be black next year.
