Martin Colony History: Start 2009 with one pair. Upgraded from S&K houses to two Trendsetter 12's with gourds beneath in 2013. I have experienced job, pet, and parental losses since '13. The Purple Martins lift my spirits and remind me how life continues forward by flying their little selves from Brazil back to my yard. As one forum person once told me, chin up DebA, look at the martins. Danger all around but yet they soar in the sky without a care in the world.

Should I just post MY happy dance on your behalf? No? Oh come on people!

Mary...I still haven't figured out netting either. So let me know when you do! I have my pipe guards up as high as I can reach and I would like to do netting above them as a back up but cannot figure out how to do that with raising and lowering and keeping netting in place.

Those pics of the snakes Steve K. posted give me the willies!!

Your happy KS friend,
