Hi Charles, This looks like an Eastern Phoebe nest – they are much more likely to use moss, whereas Barn Swallows typically use mud and grasses in their nests. You can see examples of Eastern Phoebe nests here, and Barn Swallow nests here.
Thank you for the correction! I will change my data. I will try to get a picture of the mother.
No problem, happy to help!
