Finally saw my first Martin today he landed on one of my gourd rack at 8:15 this morning adult male. Should I put it on the scout report or wait until he stays overnight a few times??

Thanks everyone I was starting to get worried about them with everyone getting them so much earlier this year. But as of now I have one pair and I don’t want to sound greedy but keep them coming. I just put up 4 new gourd racks today that hold 32 gourds on each of them. So I hope they all fill up over the next few years. God bless everyone and have a great season.
