Purple Martin

August 18, 2021

Purple Martins are the largest swallows in North America. They are a rare patient at PAWS, and we are currently caring for two juveniles from different sites. Both fell from their nests and ended up swimming in the Puget Sound. They recovered well and will spend a few more days in care before they start flying. They will then return to their families. Learn more about this species from Seattle Audubon’s Birdweb
