Barn Swallows

"Barn Swallows"

It was such a short time ago that the swallows returned to spend the summer months raising their young within the weathered beams of our old barn. Four short months ago, to be exact, that the first male arrived on the evening of April 20th, delighting me with his presence and the promise that Spring had indeed finally arrived.

As August comes to an end, their second brood of four has been fledged - and, along with the other pair and their trio of fledglings, they have all left on the migratory journey that will hopefully see them return to us next Spring. Until then, I am left with empty nests to remind me of their cheerful greetings each morning as I arrived to feed the horses, and the knowledge that winter is once again, not far off.
