Waiting For Rain

This will be my third year hosting martins. I started out with a single pair in 2008 and last year I had 6 pairs.

I did have some problems with an owl last year but because I closely watch my birds everyday I was able to act quickly and prevent any further loss.

I installed owl guards on the house and around the gourds. The picture is pre guard. This year I have installed a second T-14 house and am anxiously awaiting the return of the martins.

I hope to have a full yard this year.
