Wonderful news Tony! I'm looking forward to my first ever ASY's to return this year. It is very exciting. I know it can happen any time, especially with the temperatures they are predicting this week and all the reports coming in of birds arriving. Dave S. is only a few miles from me and one of his landed today.
Yipeeeeeee!

Yes, its hard to count, as some may be in the gourds, but I did count 20 a few times, so I will quit trying to count them, they are too hard to count and the amount may be wrong anyway. The weather has been so nice here recently, the martins are pairing up and all looks great here. Its so warm, I planted the potatoes & 7 hills of gourds yesterday!
