.. Hello Everyone... My Martins have arrived a little early this year.. (about two weeks early that is ).. I still had my gourds and houses all plugged... Was going out to see how hard the wind was blowing and if I needed to lower the racks again.. But there they were singing and flying all around the closed gourds.. So I went ahead and opened about 8 gourds.. Season has started for me.. (A little early, but that's ok) ..
