Barn swallow



I can't seem to find words to write anything meaningful (or foolish for that matter) so a pic of this fella will have to suffice. Swallows are among my favourite birds and I'm always pleased to see them in spring and throughout summer when they raise their young and prepare them for a long journey south.

Ever been to Capistrano? However you spell it. I don't think I've ever seen a swallow up close. Beautiful. :)

I love swallows too next to sparrows.
Sparrows are my favorite.
