Anyone successfully hosting PM colonies near the tri-state corner of KY, VA and TN, particularly in the areas of Harrogate TN, Ewing VA or Middlesboro KY??
We moved here a year ago and havent seen any PMs around. Trying to attract some now with newly put-up houses and gourds. Maybe its because the lack of their primary food in this area? Havent seen dragon flies which they love.

TIA
Mike

If you go to the purple Martin scout arrival map and go down to select the states you can pick which state you’re interested in and then you can click on the year and put 2022 and it should give you all the purple Martin landlords in that tri-state area by state. I hope this helps you find the answers you’re looking for.
