Purple Martins
On Wednesday, March 3, a group of 11 Purple Martins were seen on the white Purple Martin house for the first time this season. The group consisted of both male and female birds. The martins were busily flying to and from the nest box, going in and out of the nesting holes, and flying out over Mosquito Creek feeding on insects.
We will be watching the nest box closely to see if the Purple Martins will decide to stay and nest here on LSSI or if they will move on to other locations. Stay tuned!
