Observation details

tried to do a count of them by looking at the pictures, counting a section of wire, and then multiplying. I am guessing that this is a low count because I do not have pictures of them all. TOTALLY AMAZING to see this many martins in one spot! Is this a roost site or a staging site before migrating??
