Hello to all,
Dropped my racks 6/29/24 for check # 15. Rack l - no young and 82 have fledged from this rack, Rack 2 - 2 young in lower 6 and 91 fledges and Rack 3 - 0 young and 75 fledges. Thought this would be my last check of the season but 2 youngsters are still hanging on in Rack 2. Totals now are 2 young and 248 fledges.
Happy Martining, Mike
