- I know Purple Martin's will be returning soon. I have my house up and waiting for
- them. I'm in central Texas and have not seen any yet. Can some of you in
- the southern US post to this group when you begin to see the birds? It would
- be nice to know the progress of their return in case some of us are waiting to
- put our house up. In my case, if I start having problems with Sparrows or
- Starlings, I might take my house down, or cover it, until I knew the Martins were
- close. If I knew where they were, I'd have a good chance of getting everything
- ready just before they arrive, thereby limiting the Sparrows/Starlings' chance
- to move in first. Thanks.
