I just got back from Highland Mall where I did a time-lapse video of the purple martins that roost there.
And incidentally, the sunset. It’s part of a larger work I’m doing that involves sunset time lapse videos. It’s the ten minutes every day that Texas is beautiful, so I can’t let that go to waste.
There were plenty of people there watching the purple martins, probably a couple dozen. There were dudes with dates, families with children, and senior citizens with lawn chairs.
It probably has to do with the TV news story about the purple martins at Highland Mall. It probably wasn’t because of the Austinpost article I wrote on the subject.
