There were tree swallows by two nesting boxes today. Do they return on the same day each year like the Swallows of San Juan Capistrano? Perhaps their return recorded this year might be a marker. Can I remember to note and compare the date next year? The bluebird houses host tree swallows. That's not a problem because swallows also need homes. It's a pleasure to see them adopting the nesting boxes. Almost all were occupied last year. Three boxes were added this year ten miles from the others. It will be interesting to see if they also are used.
Spring must be here as heralded by the frog chorus and migrant birds return.
Takk for alt,
