Louise,
Thanks for the concern, but it's not that important. :lol: I was just curious about how you (Forum members) identified one another at martinfest. And who all was going.

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.

Tony,
You said you had 138 babies! I was wowed and shared that I last had 17. WooHoo! But I said watch out I am gonna get closer to catching you because I was nest checking the next day...

Which I can now report that I have 25 babies and currently 23 more eggs. How about you? Up to 500 babies yet? :lol:
