Lower Makefield Township's Bird of the Month for August 2026
The Purple Martins

 

🐦 North America’s largest swallow—and a spectacular aerial insect hunter.

🐦 They spend almost all of their day in flight, catching flying insects with amazing speed and agility.

🐦 In the eastern U.S., Purple Martins nest almost exclusively in birdhouses and martin gourds provided by people.

🐦 They migrate thousands of miles each year, traveling between North America and South America.

🐦 They are highly social, nesting in colonies and gathering in huge flocks before their fall migration.

🐦 Providing and maintaining martin houses helps support Purple Martins and encourages them to return year after year.

Have you spotted Purple Martins in Lower Makefield Township this summer?
