    Default Swallows

    Swallows arrived here in Brough yesterday. Quite late again this year. Always good to see them though.

    We've got a second brood of chicks still in the nest in the garage- a bit worrying really and hoping that it it's not too late. One of the parents has been regularly dive bombing us every time we go anywhere near -or even if we don't! We can be at the other side of the garden and still come in for a hair parting swoop and accompanying shriek! I've resorted to wearing a hat!

    The barn swallows only produced a single brood but the housemartins have a second, also still in the nest. I've only been in this house 5 years but I've never seen them try for a second brood before. Fingers crossed.
