First Martins at Pokegama Lake Site - May 11, 2008

I decided to check on the Pokegama Lake site this evening.   I just had a hunch... sure enough - there was an ASY male trying to lure down a female!   The male zipped right into a compartment and called for the female.   She landed several times, peered into the compartment.   She nearly entered several times but never went all the way in.   She took off and the male continued to sit on the porch.  He is perched on the lower porch of the right side of the T-14!  Several Tree Swallows harassed the female a bit, she didn't seem the least worried about them.  It sure would be nice to have this site activated its first year!
