I saw 1 male martin today sitting on my gourds, not sure if he spent the night or not but I know this is the earliest I have ever had a martin return. My usual return date is between March 23rd and the 27th.

Just poking around at previous scout reports back to 2010 or so, it would seem the martins are 7-10 early compared to those years. Thanks El Nino?
