While at my daughter's soccer practice tonight at the National Guard Armory fields in Havre de Grace, there was a constant stream of Purple Martins heading south from 5:30 - 7:30 PM. They ranged from single birds to loose groups of 15-20. Rarely were there even a few seconds when none were in sight. Several thousand must have gone over in those 2 hours and they were still coming when we left.
