Feeding the Purple Martins on Long Lake in Portage Lakes Ohio!

Feeding the purple martins on Long Lake in Portage Lakes Ohio is a curious event!

You scramble up some eggs, take a plastic spoon, and flip the eggs into the air so

that the birds can swoop in and catch them! It is awesome to watch! The birds

swarm the area to get their share of the eggs! The white gourd like orbs on the

pole are the bird houses for the purple martins! We encourage them to stay

because they are known for feeding on mosquitoes and that keeps the pesky

insects away! We love our purple martins!
