  • I hate martins .

  • Impressive video. Did you make your houses? The spoon catapult surprised me....I was thinking you were going to pull out a bean shooter....

  • Nice Job!!! Good info....

  • Thank you so much for this! I'm new to the care of purple martins and we've had a bit of a cold snap... I'm a little worried about them as they seem very sluggish today. I don't have any money to buy crickets right now, but apparently scrambled eggs will do the trick! Thank you!!

  • me and grandpa can't wait. over 100 houses and over 300 gourds washington illinois....

  • They haven't showed up to my boxes too early for the past two years, but we now know what to do if they do in the future. Thanks for info. Well done.

  • Thanks for the kind words. I am located in extreme SW Nebraska. Little town called Benkelman. This colony is five years old.

  • This has to be one of the most informative and visually cool videos out there....great videography and highly demonstrative as well. I look forward to more of your videos through out the spring/ summer documenting your colony. Where are you located? How long has your colony been active?

  • Bruntdog,

    Excellent video with very good information.
