Roostin’ n’ breedin’…

Niall wrote a post about the swallows that return to our house each year to roost. Here are a few snaps of the children they have bred. It was tough to get close to them as I think they were a bit more skittish (protective of the young) but you can clearly see one of the parents (the male I think) and the two babies, which are smaller and have fluffier breast feathers. It has been great to have them visiting! 🙂
