Love it!!! What a beautiful thing to do for your kids, showing them one of the many wonderful things happening in nature all around us, all the time. Thanks so much for sharing it here!
Very nice! Wonderful video!I have had Bluebirds for years but never tree Swallows until this year! Curious how they will get along 50 yds apart! Thanks for the Video!
I had a pair of tree swallows take over one of my bluebird boxes. At first, I was annoyed; until I got to know them. They are more colorful than the bluebird, and much more interesting to watch; flying around, catching insects right out of the air. Unfortunately, the nest was attacked by a racoon. I would like to think that the young 'uns had fledged, but was unable to determine that. Thanks for the peek inside the nest.
So many questions. Excellent educational video! I have my first nesting box and tree swallows moved in. I can hear the babies chirping away. What kind of bird intruded on the nest? Why are there staples on the inside of the nesting box? Why is there a dowel /perch on the outside top of the nesting box?
