New Residents



Ralph and I both noticed a lot of debris on the front porch and could not figure out from whence it came, until we looked UP and saw two barn swallows laboriously constructing a mud nest in a corner of the porch roof. If you're in the garage when they're working, it sounds like a buzz saw in action.

Where do birds go during the day and what do they do...aerial exercises, cavorting with other birds, gobbling up worms? The birds are usually gone from mid-morning on until nightfall when they fall peacefully asleep.
