Female Purple Martin with Insects
This female purple martin is bringing insects back to the nesting compartment to feed
its young.  All of our Purple Martin Bird House Installations use the Supergourd which
is made of polyethylene and stays much cooler than metal houses.  In the northern
states where it doesn't get as hot, this is an inexpensive material that works fine for
raising young birds in.  However, in the southern states (from Texas over to Florida),
temperatures have been measured up to 138 degrees inside the aluminum houses,
with around 40%-60% of the eggs being COOKED and never making it to the hatchling
stage. Purple Martin Propagators is doing it's best to replace these aluminum houses
with much better (and cooler) SuperGourds that allow more babies to fledge.

that are on top of the twigs they bring in for nesting material.
This Bat Conservation International
Certified BAT TOWER is much
better than the traditional wooden
bat houses that stores are selling.
