Lived in Sandspit for 3 years....
A road foreman saw a Martin riding a Deer & chased it down to help the Deer.
This was in the mid 90s.
I've had Martin show up quickly to claim gut piles.
Find it hard to believe they can kill a Deer though ?
I'm thinking it's road kills etc the Martin are feasting on.
Maybe new born as well ? They are TINY !
Biggest problem I could see are the Raccoons there, on every Island. Way over populated with them !
