CoBirders: A Tree Swallow we recaptured today in a bird box (#SOS 26 on our bluebird trail) was banded originally by us in a bird box (SOS 28) when on a nest in May 2009. At that time she was a Second Year bird (SY), meaning she was hatched in 2008. So we know for sure that she is four years old, and that she is nesting in the box next 100 yards from the one she used in 2009.
Good birding to you.
