Day 5 - The purple martins

Ann took us out in the morning and later we went on our own and found some stores to buy gifts for our furbaby sitters. These houses were very active with parents busy feeding babies.

Good shot- these "houses" were specially designed but I'd have to dig out my pictures from the first time I visited here to remember the details.

Interesting group of bird houses. Great shot.

At one time there was a little village in Illinois that became well known for building purple Martin “condos”. Not this fancy but with many houses also. This was over 25 years ago, I remember my parents taking me to see all the houses out the factory.

These are so unusual! Fascinating!
