25 migration

Post by SYmywa »

Howdy folks
Who's seeing TS or PM migration arriving in they're area, for the 2025 season :roll:
Allen, anything happening in Crookston area?
Perry, what's it looking like in your area?
Large flocks of Avian, have been moving thru, NW Minnesota this spring, but BB are only house nesters here so far!

1st birds today @ 6:45 AM. 7 by evening most ever on 1st day. Put last T14 up yesterday total of 108 compartments including the 52 gourds this year. Replaced all brake winches with worm gear winches. Much easier on my bad shoulders. Birds went straight to meal worm feeders.

Congrats 👏
Nice report, smart upgrade!
Worm winches can keep you safe, when using cordless drill with extension to operate, thus keeping you out from under!😉
Three ASY-m & an ASY-f arrived at our site on evening of April 16th!
Cool temps have cut foraging & socializing to bare minimum!I 😳
