Purple Martin

The Purple Martin Conservation Association is the largest conservation organization devoted to Purple Martins, with over thirty years leading research projects that study and protect the species. 

This channel was created to share our knowledge and love of these unique birds. Travel with us through the Amazon, learn how to find a migratory roost using weather radar, and much more! We work with state-of-the-art research using geolocator and GPS data-loggers to collect invaluable information on migratory pathways. Our biologists also design and test products that allow people to become successful landlords that you can purchase from the PMCA Shop!

There are many exciting things happening at the PMCA and many ways to get involved. We invite you to join our community! Together we can work to "ensure the future of Purple Martins."

The Purple Martin Conservation Association is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable organization headquartered in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (USA).
