The Purple Martin colony and its surroundings are empty. Eileen Schwinn tells me that she has seen a few Purple Martins in the Pine Neck area that she thinks may have come from the on our side of the creek (and not from the smaller colony on the east side of Weesuck Creek). This consisted of a half youngsters with one adult male. In any case, there were only Barn Swallows and a couple of Chimney Swifts feeding over the marsh.
Just when I thought that Chanterelle season was over, I found a big patch of these delicious mushrooms. We'll have a Chanterelle risotto, a Chanterelle pasta sauce
and maybe just sauteed Chanterelles; there' probably enough for all of the above!
