have you ever heard about a grimdos island in lake cumberland thanks

Get to the point....

Where were the dead moved because I'm doubting they were all moved any where. Possibly only grave markers were moved. But history was lost when this lake was made. Homes were flooded Fact!! So were buiness & undoubtedly so were Cemeterys!! All for few to profit from tourism in this area.

My family passes this house every trip to Lake Cumberland. This was very nostalgic for me, thank you for this.

I’ve always been told cemetery island is over by the dam near Rowena marina. As a kid when the dam was being repaired and lake levels were low, I actually saw the caskets coming out of the dirt and the next weekend the army core of engineers was out there removing the caskets on the island. Maybe there are multiple islands? but cool clips love the lake!

Wow, I do have a brand new colony and have a tree swallow that claimed one and have them moved, now have them moved to my neighbors yard but when we were getting a new fence its confused the tree swallows and they are back to my 12 unit gourd unit. And now the tree swallows keep coming back. Im going to tough this out and keep on trying. It’s great to see this video, if you have an established site vs a brand new site. Mine is so new I just brought it down and left it down while moving my “green goblin” I have 2 neighbors with martins and just waiting for 2nd years to move it. It’s April 24 so maybe none this year. The first ones I saw were here 4-7 and the 2nd years can be 4-5 weeks behind.

Sad to say, we had family they never moved. My great X3 grandfather is still under the lake.

That’s awesome, my grandpa bell was born at horseshoe bottom

I Enjoy your videos. Had this happen today. ua-cam.com/video/mG-z3CRMg8o/v-deo.html

Do you nest change on your tree swallow boxes?

Where on the lake is this? My son lives in Jamestown and we love to explore there.

I built one this spring. Tree swallow wasted no time in claiming it.

This is cool, I've never seen someone fix up natural gourds like that with the porches and clean outs, nice.

When was this video filmed? Water is super low!

Wish I saw this last week , our fledge 4 days ago . If we get another brood I will definitely try . Thanks for sharing

What do you do for a new 16 hole birdhouse not gourds.

I have had purple martins for 16 years now. Build two of these boxes and put up in my yard 2 years ago. Have tons of tree swallows now. Did not ever see any until these boxes went up. Thanks for taking the time to share the designs of this nest box. My birds love it.

Thank you for posting this video! This video has been shared to help illustrate an important piece of ancestral family history for some of Wayne County, Kentucky’s earliest pioneer families: the Rousseaus. The content helps us show the result of displacement of a family cemetery that had been located at the mouth of White Oak Creek (formally King’s Creek) and the Cumberland River. The Rousseau family’s tobacco plantation (nicknamed “Montgomery Mansion”) was involved in the Civil War Battle of Mill Springs in the winter of 1862. The owner of the plantation at that time was John “Jack” Rousseau (1782-1870). He operated a ladies seminary school (finishing school) from of the property and was highly regarded as a commissioner of education in early Kentucky history. He helped to secure a popular vote for free public education and in 1847, Kentucky passed this idea into legislation. More on the Kentucky pioneer and why his grave is now underwater is available through www.JanelleMolony.com/Rousseau, or on social media @RousseauProject.

I always get tree swallows in my boxes. Nice design, going to build one, thanks.

Larry I am intersted in seeing your old video on the S&S Controoler in action, showing the starlings being captured. It was on UA-cam about 3 yrs ago, can it be seen privately? BTW thanks for being a supreme friend to our native birds, and an advocate for invasive species management. I am a PMCA supporter, and a landlord to Purple martins too!

Amazingly steady!

Looks lonely!!!!

🐦❤👍👏

What work when you have a house and you cant relocate the offender.

i love how theyre clearly big enough to eat the mealworms themselves but still want to be fed by mom and dad

Yes. Aluminum siding material. I now use pieces of copper wire to "tie it" to the perch rods.

That feeder tray you installed on your pole with gourds is that made out of sheet metal?

Sure gonna miss him a great tribute to a really great guy

Awesome.

Is this just past Lee's Ford Marina?

great video Larry! excellent insight!

hello larry melcher, I am an ornithologist from spain, I would like to get in touch with you, could you send me an email to talk?, naike_bcn@hotmail.com, thanks

Thank you for helping the Purple Martins

No. This was at historic high levels. On the downstream side, this video shows how much water they were releasing to slow down how fast the lake continued to rise. It was a delicate balance not to flood downstream towns. 2018 was a record rainfall year.

is this the normal river level for this dam?

Thumbs up..

TIGER SWALLOWTAILS GETTING THE NEEDED MINERALS FROM THE MUD. LOOKS LIKE NEW BROODS THAT JUST HATCHED OUT.

I love it! 🙌I had Parents and babies trained to come eat when I called too, but The Mockingbirds would always come and scare away the bluebirds. What do you do about more aggressive birds? I chased the Mockingbirds and Robins away with a water hose for a while.

All it takes is the same time every day. I wish I was back on afternoon shift. When I was home every morning, I trained the parent bluebirds to find mealworms on the ceramic dish. It was a treat to see them bring the young fledglings to the same dish. I found out the dish can't be paper....it blows away too often! Lol

Precious ❤️💞!!! Thank u for this!!! Wow, wish I could do that!

Thanks Larry, great video.

Thanks Larry. Pier S boater.

The House Sparrows that visit my yard in middle Georgia are ADORABLE! I haven't been lucky enough to see a European Starling yet but I've been blessed with visiting Baltimore Orioles, Blue Jays, Rusty Black Birds, Cardinals, Caroline Wrens, Chickadees, House Finches, Hummingbirds, Goldfinches, Mourning & Collared Doves, Nuthatches, Tufted Titmouse', Warblers, Pileated & Downy (?) Woodpeckers, 2 Chipmunks & about 8 Squirrels that are bottomless pits! Lol! I may need a go-fund-me account to feed them all but they all give me a lot of joy.

Would you mind sharing your email address with me. I’m trying to attract purple martins without luck I live in Campbellsville. I’ve got a question about where my troyer gourds are located thanks. I’m a forester with web site. Arnzenforestryservices.com. Thanks

I live like right on the lake here so this is cool to see

I had a set of eastern blue birds last week and house sparrows started building a nest on top my blue birds are gone I tried to put a hole on top of the box that I saw on another site but that is the one that took over can you help me I have not been able for 2 years to keep blue birds and on my purple martins I have a battle keeping them out I ordered a house sparrow wire box on line it did not work I am not good at shooting I have tried please if you can help

I was there a day before the fire

Oh! And I thought TN didn't have anything too cool! This is amazing!

Delete this Crap... The audio is Garbage...

Glen, there's nothing written in stone. But I read/hear that poles should be close enough to make the Martin's feel they are part of the colony. Meaning, (and just grabbing random numbers) you wouldn't want them further apart than 50 to 100 feet and not close enough to cause problems exiting at high speed to not be caught by flying predators. (Hawks) 20 to 30 feet might be a good number to provide enough room for the birds safety.
