This was taken on July 2nd, so these babies are long grown & gone. The bird house is quiet & empty now, the first signs that summer is beginning it’s slow transition to autumn. We are always in transition, so we often miss the subtle signs but sometimes it does the heart good to notice them… 08/07/19

The challenges of raising a family can be exhausting, no matter who you are. These baby Tree Swallows are insatiable and even though Dad seems to be trying to hide around the corner, he’s been spotted and clearly, the delivery of the next meal needs to be right NOW! There is actually 2 little heads in the hole, I’m not sure if you can see the other one. I’m also not sure how many babies are in there, but I’m betting there’s more than two. 07/23/19
