ASYs are one week early here in Iowa. Across the board with our members in comparison to last years arrival dates it is one week difference. If things go as they are right now, I expect martins will also arrive about one week early in the Dakotas. Best of luck everyone.
Nest checks, supplement feeding and good landlord practices make for a healthy colony.
Re: PMOD SITE
Along with "Early bird" Iowa, Minnesotas moderating temp is losing snow, but gaining avian, crows, geese & Robins have arrived to name a few!
Re: PMOD SITE
With the cold weather a thing of the past, a wide variety of bird species are moving into the state. I live on a small lake in central Iowa and we now have American coots, northern shovelers, white egrets, fish hawks, pipers, wood ducks, red winged blackbirds. Interestingly, here in Iowa we do not have yellow winged blackbirds. When I vacation in Minnesota I do see them.

Most Avian have Rereturn here as well, waiting to see Orials, Rose breasted Grossbeak n Hummers.
We see a pr. of BB n TS numbers in the 20s, but no PM closer than an hour away, although migrants have probably flowen right over on their way to Manitoba and Saskatchewan!?

Re: PMOD SITE
I'm suprised to hear no martins at your location. We do have a few TS. No Orioles or hummers.

In 2018 the first ASY-m arrived on May 15, bout noon.
By noon on May 16, an SY-f was seen Chatting with him!
Is that a bit Unusual to see SY-f that soon?
Anyway, the SY camped about 4 days n Disappeared!
Next day he had Twin SY-f purtched on his roof.
DETERMINED CHAP!
