Each summer I look forward to the birds.
Killdeer
Hummingbirds
Starlings
But I love my barn swallows.
I don’t care about the little piles of poo.
There’s just something about their little beauty, twittering and chirping that warms my heart.
When I see those little baby heads peering over the edge of the nest, I run for the camera!
We have about 5 nests throughout the horse shed and big barn.
I spy between 2 and 5 chicks squeezed into the various nests.
Of course the watchful eyes of the parents, too.
