Got 7 pairs of Martin's in the house, and the young ones started comin out this week.  My poor bird down is being dive bombed like nobodies business.  When the dog goes out to pee the entire back yard turns into a circling tornado attack.

Gotta love nature.

About 20 sittin on the house this morning, that makes 6 out and flyin with the adults.  Last year they got up to 25 sittin on the house at once, back yard isn't that big so they fill the sky.

Cain't count them no more second brood, and part of the third up there now, no room left fer them to perch, gotta get a bigger boat (I mean house).

  23+ birds, when the dog goes out, all hell breaks loose.  Been tryin to count them when they land but they start fighten and throwin each other off when it starts gettin tight.  You darn near cain't find a section of sky they ain't in - God it's great!
