I visited all of the sites today.  The Memory Lake, ECE, and Snake River colonies are doing great; the males are busy defending cavities and attracting females.  The three new sites, Rush Lake, Plastech Corp. and Pokegama Lake, remain without martins, but are all ready to go.  These sites will most likely attract SY pairs, which should begin to return within a few weeks.  I checked each site today to ensure all compartments had dried White Pine needles.  I also trapped a bull House Sparrow from the Pokegama Lake site using a nest insert trap.  The three new sites are now free from European Starings and House Sparrows, which is of utmost importance when starting new colonies!
