I haven't seen them myself, but another reliable birder has reported the first purple martin at Sherwood Island Park, another strong purple martin colony.....within the next week we will be putting the houses up at Hammo (although we won't open them up quite yet to discourage house sparrows)
We also need to pour concrete to install the trial purple martin gourds at the Guilford Salt Meadow Sanctuary. We have been waiting for the ground to thaw to pour the concrete.
If anyone is interested in coming out to help or watch when we are setting up the houses, email me and let me know and I will contact you when we are a go, weather and help dependent.
