Show me Purple Martins

[Guest]

Hi folks, It is nice to come back to the form and see yea all. I hope that you all had a good 2005 and I have seen that many of you folks had finally got there first pair. I however I did not, I tried so hard to get my first pair and nothing worked, They came day after day I even had one spend the night but no luck I think he was just passen through.I see that the 2006 scout map is up,and I have read many posts but nothing like the blues man......... that old boy can make your blood boil. My housing is in the attaic and I thought I still have plenty of time to get ready but now after reading his post the time has come. Happy Holidays And good luck in 2006.

Yes, being in Missouri you still have plenty of time.
If you had that much luck with visitors, your chances are very good, so hang in there.......

Looks like a great set up Greg. No way you shouldn't get PMs this year.

Do you have a round hole gourd? If not, I might put one up. If one spends the night for a week or so, swap it out.


I had SREH anxiety but after witnessing how easily they zip in and out after they learn and dealing with ooooodddles of starlings, I will always recommend SREH.

Shooting starlings is like bailing water out of the ocean.

Greg, once you get that first pair the wait will be worth it. I bet you get martins this year. My first martins arrived March26th so you still have time to get everything ready.
