barn swallows The kids were watching a pair of Barn Swallows build a nest on our porch. George and I were ready to douse the nest with a hose and shoo them away but the kids begged to watch. What better life lesson could we give them? Four eggs were laidand mom did not leave the nest unless her mate was sitting on the eggs. I had no clue the father bird would do that. Then 18 days ago three babies hatched. They were these tiny fingernail sized, bald, ugly things looking much like a baby mouse. We have been watching them daily and watching them open their eyes, loose their down, and yesterday the last baby flew from our hand and was gone. Amazing how fast they grew. It reminds me we still have our kids in the nest and made me give both of them big hugs because they will be gone before we know it.
