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.

Is there really a Tulsa Kansas? I don't think so. Did someone click the wrong state? Does it allow that to happen?

Nope No Tulsa in the list of towns that start with "T" here in Kansas.

:shock:

I do think it was a mistake as they listed last year from Tulsa OK.

If you look at their last year entry, it was Tulsa Ok. They just clicked the wrong state.

Aha. It was through the scout report that I learned there is an Elk City OK...and KS. :)

Tony, I am SURE that's it! But it does just figure there is no such place and they have birds and I don't. Deb
