You Could say the martins have been missed managed over the years sadly at Plum. I too can recall the days when hundreds of Martins nested there. There is a excellent group in Seabrook. I am very happy for them and there is talk about change at the funspot area colony as well there working on it now. New Colony's have been started in Seekonk MA,Barnstable MA,Wellfleet Bay - Mid cape. Barrington RI 125 pairs
Rehoboth MA just over 100 pairs. And many full smaller sites threw out southern NE.
I hope you have having a good season. ---Ray
