All,
Anyone have any good explanations as to why 25 dead baby martins of
varying ages might be expelled from a total of 24 gourd nest boxes over
the course of three days last week? the owner suspects cold night time
temps, but I don't buy it. No new expulsions since then, and the
remaining young appear to be doing all right
.
Take care,
