I live out from Berlin Ga. Saw my first ASY martin this morning. Looked cold and tired. I have been watching the
skys for several days now and he finally showed up this morn. I live in south Ga. and I usually get mine the first
part of Feb. Good to see him early. Hope everybody has a great martin season.
