Purple Martin Facts:

• Purple Martins are one of North America's best known and most desired birds.
• Purple Martins are the largest North American swallow and the only species of martins on this continent.
• People treasure Purple Martins for their graceful flight, social antics, gurgling song, and insect-eating habits.
• Purple Martins are a unique part of North America's natural history, managed by humans longer than any other species of songbird.
• In most of North America, Purple Martins depend on human-supplied housing for nesting.
• Purple Martins faithfully return to the backyards of their landlords (the people who put up martin housing) in North America traditionally as warm spring weather returns for their breeding season.
• Purple Martin breeding season is approximately a 70-day cycle while the birds are with us in our backyards. During this time, Purple Martins are busy building their nests, laying their eggs, raising their young and bringing happiness to their devoted landlords.
