Purple Martin Association of the Dakotas

Who know's what a "Purple Martin" is besides P.M. landlords

Considering the trend for Ag. groups, toward controlled chemical application and
buffer zones, to better protect the air, land and water.

Should we share the plight of P.M. with these groups and others, will the above changes
increase their chance of hosting P.M. successfully?

Have you spoken to a friend or neighbor about hosting P.M.recently?

Have you offered thoughts on upgrading antiquated housing?

Have you offered to help make upgrades to housing in "Dyer Straights"?

Have you noticed a poster, anywhere, indicating the plight of Purple Martins or
offering help to get started hosting these beautiful swallows?

Can we restart the "P.M. Tree" sprawling across the land as it once did?

Last summer our organization dismantled a large run down wooden martin house and relocated it close by to a new member interested in martins. The old residence just left it and the new owners didn't want it, so we rescued the structure, rebuilt expanded room size and raised it to it's glory days.

Very nice effort by your group, bet it's Swallow safe and maintenance friendly
Long move or will the "old colony" have no problem finding?
Each positive change, tho seems small, is another branch on the "new purple tree"
Bet there are more just like it waiting for upgrades.
Keep-up the good work

Thanks
