Re: [cayugabirds-l] barn swallows

Our barn swallows are gone this morning too and it seems very quiet. They had a very late fledge and a small group stayed behind the rest of them. Michele Interlaken -- www.thehaywardhouse.com www.bodyshopwellness.com -- On Aug

Re: [cayugabirds-l] OT: Monarch caterpillar rescue opportunity?

So very good to hear! A friend of mine raised three Monarch caterpillars that she found in her garden. She just released them as beautiful adults. I see one or two Monarchs daily in my yard. I haven't found any caterpillar yet. I do plant native plants to try and help. I have lots of
