What No Martins

Saturday Fun

At Carsington they built this Sand Martin wall last year. I keep looking to see if it was occupied but to no avail. The other day there was signs of movement but it was only these two tree sparrows inspecting the wall. LOL

That is so awesome that they would build a wall specifically for breeding birds. Never happen here. A great image showing this Brian.

So they built it and nobody came? Oh well. Maybe a Martin will discover the wall eventually. And meanwhile, I do love Tree Sparrows ;)
 
Maybe they're waiting for the vacancy sign to be put up. Lol, cute shot of the sparrow anyway.
