    Barn Swallow

    The parent stays in flight while feeding. I also know every single baby and parent have a very unique calling pitch, which stop s the babies getting fed by the wrong parents. I have actually listened to the different noises and pitches and it takes some working out. I have seen a few babies...

    Barn Swallows are back!

    Hooray! The Barn Swallows returned today -- exactly one year from the date they returned last year, April 22nd! I've been going out with binoculars every morning and evening in hopes of sighting them. For the past few evenings I'd thought I'd since a solitary Barn Swallow flying high in the...

  20. Feeding time

    Feeding time

    I didn't know there were any Barn Swallows around still being fed because this is the time of year they usually leave the area for their southward migration. But this morning, I noticed two of them seeming to "kiss" each other in the air. Silly me, I later realized that a juvenile...

    Preparing for migration

    Each morning around 8:30 or 9, juvenile Barn Swallows gather with a few adults on the utility wire, the only time of day I see them gathered like this. This photo is from Sunday morning, August 10th, but they were there again this morning. I've counted as many as 12 lined up on the wire at the...

    Barn and Cliff Swallows

    Two Barn Swallows on left, two Cliff Swallows on right. I'm pretty sure they are all juvies. Only a couple more weeks and they will be starting on their long trip south.

    Male Barn Swallow, North American

    Was perching next to female. I always specify "North American" because our erythrogaster subspecies lacks the solid breast band displayed by subspecies on other continents. There is still a chance they might use the porch nest now that the Cliff Swallows are finished using it. This...

    Aren't I handsome?

    This male Barn Swallow often perches on the wire near my driveway, as he is here. Haven't yet figured out why, but he seems very interested in the drain pipe on the side of the building near my porch.

    Barn Swallows, North American subspecies

    This pair of Barn Swallows was guarding the nest they had built on a house that my cousins had rented on Deep Creek Lake in Swanton, Maryland. The pair flew around us for a while, then perched on the roof of the adjacent house to observe us. Female on left, male on right (I think).
