Return of another songbird


This morning as I was passing some of the tree swallow nesting boxes, I was thinking to myself that I should be seeing the tree swallows any day now (last year I saw the first one on April 6th), when I heard the musical notes of a tree swallow, I kid you not. A pair swooped by in front of me, and this one landed (back to, sorry) for a fleeting moment on a twig. I hope the double-digit temperatures forecast for next week bring out the insects, or these birds will have slim pickings.
