Purple Martin By Miss' Carrie Jacobs
Purple martins are summer visitants arriving late March or April. They are large swallows with blue black coats and grayish white underparts. Indians and pioneers alike provided nesting gourds or houses. Martins defend territory against king birds and help control mosquitoes and other insects. They return north in spring but may face cold snaps and starvation if insects are scarce. You can invite them by building suitable homes rather than invitations in envelopes.
