Things are slowing down a bit. I did a nest check today. So far, this year, I have fledged 59 baby Purple Martins. There are 2 nests that remain with a total of 6 babies. One nest of 3 is about 8 days old and the other nest of 3 is about 14 days old. I will miss them when they are gone.  August to January is not too long of a wait. They will be back before I know it.

I wonder if Beau is doing well. I guess I will never know.
