First flight test
I’ve been watching these babies. I knew they would soon be leaving the nest. I let the dogs out one evening. I heard a chirp, turned and they were watching me. They were sitting on an old tobacco basket about 3 feet from me.

The first photo is a green heron. There was a nest in our blue spruce tree right next to our house. There were 3 babies, but one fell out of the nest and died. I had never seen a Green Heron before, so it was a real thrill to catch this fledgling as it was learning to fly. The 2nd photo is a nest of Barn Swallows. There are 5 babies in the nest.

Barn Swallow Babies
This barn swallows nest is above our front door which we never use. I have a perfect view without any worry of disturbing the babies. This porch is never used. I get to watch babies every year .
Six baby barn swallows!
This is the third year this pair has used the same nest. The first year they had one brood and last year they had two. Their babies from previous years come visit frequently and we love watching the family all lined up on our gutter above our front porch.

Big open field nearby where about a dozen Barn Swallows fly every evening. Last week noticed they were checking out front porch. Did not take long to construct a mud nest up in a protected corner.

Barn Swallows
Barn swallows in my horse barn. Have had barns in 3 different cities in my lifetime. This is a first for me to have these wonderful creatures in a barn. Talk to them everyday. Will certainly miss them as they are beginning to practice “touch and goes” in the last couple of days.

Ozzie and Harriet: Back for another year…
While perhaps not the same pair that started nesting here in 2007, these Barn Swallows have been “summer renters” every year. They don’t seem to mind me being on the porch or even on the ladder when I relocated the webcam. Guess they figure I’m the “landlord”.
