We rented the house that has our first Martin colony but part of the agreement was we get to maintain our colony. Happy to say this year has started strong there.
We attempted last year to get a colony started at our other home in Huntley, IL but only had a visitor or two. Happy to say we have 3 who spent the night last night!
Maybe another colony has started? We have to strongly recommend playing the "chatter" CD. No doubt in our minds that is what drew them in.

That is exciting you have some spending the night at your new location!
Thanks Matt: You have been a big help to me getting started. I didn't see my visitors before I left for work today, but that is typical this time of year. They fly off but will return later tonight. In the mean time the HSP are busy which means I'll be busy as well.

Jack where in IL are you? I have not seen my visitors since Mobday night but yesterday was rainy and cold. I expect more activity today, now that the sun is back.
