MARTINS WINTERING in Brazil ?

[Guest]

A question was raised in the PM Clubhouse >>>" Does anyone have a contact in Brazil ,as to whether the Martin #'s have decreased ,because of all the Hurricane Activity this Fall in North America ? "

Louise or Patrick ,Have you heard from anyone ?

Unfortunately, no reports about winter roosts have crossed my desk yet this year. We did receive one email from our contacts who control two radar station's in Sao Paulo State Brazil who have found roost signatures. However, these images are not that useful in estimating numbers of martins, they just indicate that roosts still exist there.
