Winter 2007/8 Project, Flamborough, Ontario.  Purple Martin houses to eat all those mosquitos this summer.

It took only a week to build both the Purple Martin Houses, some lumber and paint, help to get ‘em up from my nephew Tyler Golka. Those birds will eat a lot of the pesky mosquitoes in the summer so we can enjoy the yard and camp fire. Ah, Ecology, love it. 2007/8.

Basic Birdhouse Plan (link below) were from this page and I did some modifications, ie: size, materials, extra story etc.
