This so very interesting!! I think there were at least 2 males and 1 female. Rick Heil had one at Crane Pond late March and noted it might be there because the PI birds disperse inland sometimes. These birds were hunting more in that area but coming closer to JB Little at times. I think these birds could be indeed nesting here. Of course maybe they are just passing through too. What if they are nesting? Would they be the eastern sub-species nesting? Or are would they be a different sub-species that was blown off course? Whatever the case this needs attention and follow up for sure one way or they other. My impression was this was a territory. They were landing on the dead trees. I have never seen Martins land on trees. I know they do, I have just never seen it. Maybe wires. But honestly, our Martins have been domesticated in a way. Our war on beavers is likely why they lost so much habitat and became dependent on humans for housing. A housing crisis for martins. With the beaver activity here unchecked it has created awesome habitat. Maybe, just maybe, this has attracted Martins to nest naturally? IDK, I will definitely follow up in a few days early in the morning.
