- Martin Colony History: Landlord of colony started in 1940 by grandfather. Completely lost colony due to houses that did not provide protection from owls.
New T-14 houses installed. 100% full with no nest abandonment due to owl guards, predator lights and decoys.
Starting new colonies in Minneapolis with new T-14 houses. Planning on community martin houses in park system. Re-claimed wetlands next to city lakes would be excellent site. Currently their are No colonies in Minneapolis, MN. Hoping to have same success as I had in Western Wisconsin
I was wondering if anyone knew about where the PM roosts are occuring in Minnesota ? And if anyone will be doing pontoon tours at sunset? I would very much like to see one of these. Do they still go to Big Swan lake? Thank you,
