I don't see barn swallows here generally, but lots of tree swallows. They returned in mid April, making their presence known the moment they flew in - very busy and chatty little characters. I always have a pair nesting in my bluebird house, where several prospective renters vie for the privilege of taking up residence every year. Once a pair wins the battle and moves in, they are fierce protectors and love to dive bomb anyone who comes near - man or beast.
