Barn swallows

[FJ6AAR]

This is the second hatching in this nest this year. Is 2 hatchlings normal?

 

[FJ6AAR]

Should be swallows. Damn phone!

Should be swallows. Damn phone!

Fixed it for you . . . I know how annoying those phone "gotchas" can be . . . ( SMILE )

( I swear they have a mind of their own sometimes . . . )

 

[FJ6AAR]

They do and I don't anymore!

 

[FJ6AAR]

Thanks

I know that they make one hell of a mess in my Barn, So I do not allow them to nest.

 

[FJ6AAR]

I have several more under the shelter. Like them other than the mess. Use to kill'em now I leave them alone.

Will trade some nasty starlings for those barn swallows.
Not
Need to get rid of the starling.

Not sure on the nesting habits but like having them around our cattle barns for insect control

Get an RC helicopter & just keep dogfighting & harranguing them, they'll pack it in & move eventually. It's what i did when i was a hangar keeper.

could be normal, depends, are they african or european?

 

[FJ6AAR]

Don't know the difference.

 

[68GTXNH]

It's a simple question of weight ratios. A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut. It could be carried by an African swallow! Oh yeah. An African swallow, maybe -- but not a European swallow, that's my point.

Burn down the barn.

 

[FJ6AAR]

Just bits and pieces. Never the whole show

 

[FJ6AAR]

Send me a link.

[FJ6AAR]

That's great. Mine must be African.

 

[alsant]

[FJ6AAR]

My African.
