But mysteriously, I’ve not had any bites this year.
Mystery solved; I read about the purple martins in Oklahoma Gazette (“Winging
it,” Mark Beutler, July 25) descending upon downtown. I live in
Heritage Hills and I know now that the mosquitoes that generally feed on
me have become snacks for these feathered friends.
Hooray! Thanks for reporting on this local phenomenon.
