We had an Easter Primary Activity today. I'll be posting pictures of that in the near future. Today as we came home from the activity, we noticed our swallows are back! Every year since we have moved into this house, the swallows have returned every Spring. I thought for sure a Hawk had gotten them last year. I even chased that nasty Hawk away a couple times because I didn't want it to get our baby swallows. I'm not sure if these swallows are the exact same ones we've had since the beginning but we enjoy having them here.
The first couple of years we lived here, we would knock down the nests when the birds went away in the fall. Now we leave them up year round. We had a winter visitor (some kind of bird) this year that kept the nest warm for our swallows until the day they returned.

That day was today! We're so glad that they are back!
