- 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 want to wish you all a merry Christmas and a happy Martin year! I wish you all the best of luck in spring 2017! This is a gourd from my patch I grew that dried and harden early! He's a 9x9 gourd! I have one that is huge still connected to the vine drying! He's a beauty! I have gourds still in the patch drying! This is one I made for a gift!
