My name is Krista Adams. While passionate about all things nature, I am especially fond of Purple Martins and other native birds. I spent my childhood years enjoying the outdoors at my grandparent’s camp in Grand Isle, LA. Some of the best memories I have is spending time with my grandfather, Frank Boimare, Jr., watching the Purple Marti
My name is Krista Adams. While passionate about all things nature, I am especially fond of Purple Martins and other native birds. I spent my childhood years enjoying the outdoors at my grandparent’s camp in Grand Isle, LA. Some of the best memories I have is spending time with my grandfather, Frank Boimare, Jr., watching the Purple Martins fly around the wooden house he built. My hope is that my conservation efforts will not only help the birds, but also encourage families to enjoy the outdoors. I am a certified master naturalist and joined the Baton Rouge chapter’s board of directors in 2020. I am a member of several birding organizations including the Purple Martin Conservation Association, Louisiana Ornithological Society and the Baton Rouge Audubon Society.

Caring for Purple Martins is a family affair. My husband and daughters help me care for our colonies and prepare for events. We enjoy attending nature events as a family and spring time is a fun and busy time for us.
