- Martin Colony History: Erected 1st house in 1997. Birds were checking it out before Mike got down from the ladder. Six cavities had a little colony 1st year. Grown to 88 cavities all gourds with near 100% occupancy. Most important factor for success is rain = bugs.
Is this just today? I am trying to report, but can't get passed the login. Waiting for a new password. Longing for the Good old days when life on computers was simpler. 
Sincerely,
Laverne

Hello all, Neal from Oakland, Michigan.
Was working cleaning out the cobb webs out of my North Star house that's been up with ZERO Martins for the last 4 years. The house is crumbling before my eyes. It's a good thing I ordered a 10 gourd Troyer system with 16 Ft pole. I made it an 18 footer and got it all up yesterday after 4 Tree Swallows flew through the yard. The Bluebirds and Tree swallows are here, but no Martins. My neighbor had some last year. I'm trying to get a couple to move in. Wish me luck and good luck to all of you as well.
