[cayugabirds-l] Barn Swallows

2019-05-04 Thread Bill McAneny
About 4 Barn Swallows arrived today at their traditional summer home in 
our barns.  We had begun to worry that we would not see them this year.


In past years we had taken down the previous year's nests, which did not 
seem to make any difference to the birds.  This year the old nests are 
still up.  Let's see what happens.



Bill and Shirley McAneny, TBurg

[cayugabirds-l] Barn swallows & female RWBB

2019-04-19 Thread Johnson, Alyssa
Both BARN SWALLOWS and female RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS seem to have arrived 
overnight last night to the Montezuma Audubon Center! RWBBs are seen under the 
feeders with male RWBB, common grackle, and brown-headed cowbirds. Barn 
swallows are swooping around with tree swallows and purple martins, and also 
showing interest in their typical nesting spots on top of the outside light 
fixtures under the eave of the building.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] barn swallows

2015-04-29 Thread Tobias Dean
Our barn swallows arrived yesterday during the morning hours, 3 in total.
Many more than that left here last fall, I always wonder if some of the
others succumbed to the stress of the trip or moved elsewhere. It looks
like there is enough insect activity for them.
tree swallows seem to have come this morning and are occupying one of the
birdhouses.
  Ditto on the welcome, don't know what we do without them!

[cayugabirds-l] Barn Swallows are Back

2015-04-09 Thread bob mcguire
This morning there were some 200 Tree Swallows hawking insects at the mouth of 
Salmon Creek (Myers town park) accompanied by a dozen Barn Swallows and a 
single Northern Rough-winged Swallow (spotted by Jay McGowan) flying up the 
lake. No Cliff Swallows that either of us could pick out.

In addition there was a cooperative Glaucous Gull on the spit with a small 
number of Ring-billed, Herring, and Greater Black-backed Gulls.

[cayugabirds-l] Barn Swallows fledged

2010-07-08 Thread Kathy Strickland

All 5 baby Barn Swallows were sitting on the edge of their nest when I got home 
around 1 yesterday afternoon and the first swooped out of the nest as I 
watched. Two more left over the course of the afternoon, at different times. 
(I'd check between piano lessons.) Two were left at dusk, and when I checked 
this morning there was just one left and it left sometime this afternoon. It's 
been fun having them so easy to watch over my dining room window.
