Who's Next? (Stelgidopteryx serripennis)

We were boating slowly along the shore about 5 pm and saw several swallows flying out from the bank hawking insects. As we went by we could see parent N. Rough-winged Swallows flying in to feed their fledglings. All 7 were perched on a dead branch along the river bank.
