About average time, just too bad the weather is still not very martin-friendly in many states.
We should start seeing more subadult reports soon, too - but expect another wave of adult arrivals (2 year old martins) first.
Thanks to everyone who participates in the scout arrival study.

That's great news!
Saw 2 birds fly past this morning that looked like martins but wasn't sure, moving pretty fast in direction that would take them to Bombay hook or NJ

I just hope we get a wave of older adults soon. Nothing here. Home or town. I know we had some old birds too.

May be Randy, that you trained yours better than the rest of us to stay south till weather stabilizes. 
I had more come in Saturday evening as the temps were dropping, then a couple more yesterday that sat in the cold rain and snow showers until they decided to take one of many open holes. Seems I'm the temp lodging this year as I've had several stop-overs for the night before they move on the next day. Still got a long stretch of not so nice weather to go yet.

With all the "nearby" reports, if they now dare to show up while I am back home in Illinois meeting the grand-niece, my first grand-anything, I am going to be one salty landlord!
