Well the new season is upon us!
Migration of Geese, Hawks, Sandhills & Robin's seems weeks ahead, of norm!
Racoon & Skunk are present as well!?
First PM report on 3-10-26 in Fairmont & also one in Dassle on 3-20-26, so far, probably a month earlier than 2025!?
May have to dawn, Snow Shoes, but plan to start pre-nesting, a couple cubys, just in case!😉
Any comments or reports, from you other PM Hosts🤔

I don't want to see any Purple Martins here until at least May 4th. I'm looking at the flags pointing straight South and know that that cold weather is still coming. We're just in a false spring right now.
Best regards
