When the Swallows Come Back to . . .
...The Wrigley Wranch!
That's the good news - they are great flying insect eaters.
The bad news is they chose to build their nest of mud and twigs directly over the trailer's bar-b-q (called an RVQ - clever). During their construction period, mud has splatted all over the 'Q'. Wonder what we can expect during the nesting/birthing/raising period?
Happy Flag Day (Saturday) and Father's Day (Sunday) to ALL!
Included is an EXTREME close up Lynda shot of a swallow building its nest within our pole barn. Who needs Capastrano?

Hmmm...RVQ'd Bird's Nest Soup for Father's Day.
Instead of using saliva to build their nest, Swallow's use tiny tree branches, dry grass, or even mud to form their nest. Which is why it is the popular nest for Bir's Nest Soup ... mud being preferred over beak saliva, obviously.
