Puget Sound Purple Martins

Plastic martin houses in Woodard Bay.  The plastic gourds are "super gourds" from the Purple Martin Conservation Association. While these have been used successfully, they were  found to be hard to clean and had no higher occupancy rates than wood or PVC boxes..

Todd Tannery, AJ Fisher, and others, installing PVC boxes at Hylebos Waterway in Tacoma's Commencement Bay, last year.
