Purple Martin

The lovely sculpture above is located on the eastern shore of the Gorge where it widens to form the Selkirk Waters. It's called "The Purple Martin". I didn't see any of the birds themselves while I was there but there are nest boxes along the walkway that suggest some are resident. Purple Martins are migratory and I don't know if they have returned yet this year.

  1. A lovely place to walk. The basics of the sculpture remind me of a series of sculptures put up in a park here last year.
