Subject: [sbcobirding] Tree Swallow Nesting in a Tree at LLC!
There is only one previous report in the BBS of a Tree Swallow using a natural tree cavity for breeding at LLC and that was by Joan Lentz in 2005. However, this afternoon Lynn spotted some Tree Swallow chicks begging at the mouth of a cavity in a snag north of the path running from the dam to Stow House (approx. 34.441345, -119.850380). Initially it looked like there were 3 chicks but later we saw a fourth.
