Keeping an Eye on My Purple Martin Neighbors

June 3rd, 2009 by admin

Still Watching the Martin’s

I have been watching for them all week. Sometimes their house looks very empty, with no signs of life anywhere around it. Other times there is a great deal of flitting and darting about. Occasionally, there are little heads sticking out of the holes with a guard standing by.

A couple a days last week we had very high winds. Waves crashing on the shore, dark, cold, dismal days. If they were there, they stayed inside. Only the big birds; sea gulls and crows were out catching rides on the wind currents.

Sunday morning I looked out and there was a starling standing on their roof. I thought that would be the end of the Martin occupancy.

Monday morning was bright, sunny and warm. I was working out in my garden and I heard twittering. Authentic twittering! I looked over and was pleased to see two little heads poking out and a guard on duty. There were others flying about as well, so I hope they are there to stay. Guess I will have to keep watching. Wish I could be a guard too to protect them.

It’s almost like a song . . .

Waking up early in the bright morning to see the lake like a sheet of glimmering glass. All is silent except for a crow that waits, watching… wanting to catch a fish but doesn’t know how.

It’s almost like a song. . .

Splash! A seagull dives and captures his breakfast. . . breaks up the glossy water with a fish that is too big to handle. He tries, flutters and digs, the fish fighting a losing war. The crow leaves, looking for a food source he can obtain.

Yes, It’s almost like a song. . .

Knowing that in another hour a breeze will more ripples in the water and cause the bright sun to dance across them to welcome another day on the lake.

Almost like the song!
