Every day I expect the occupants of this Violet-green Swallow house to fly the coop.
I check morning and evening and still the two baby birds are staying put.
They've got a good thing going and they know it!
The pair of Barn Swallows are actively nesting. The female is spending most of her time on the nest.
I was delighted to hear and then see a family of Purple Martins.
For the past 5 years or so, a family comes by for a couple of weeks after their youngsters have fledged.
They hang out atop some of our tallest snags and thus are a challenge to photograph with any clarity.
I enjoy watching them fly and listening to their gurgling chatter.
I love that Thirteen Stars piece you featured, Beth. Yay on the Purple Martin sighting!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty stitched piece. I go to a nearby dock and watch lots of purple martins. They are fun birds to watch!
