This morning I smiled and rejoiced as I heard the thrumming of wings of a Vaux swift in my chimney. I've had nests most years for some time and am hoping for a repeat. Yesterday I was surprised by an early Northern House wren seen and heard singing lustily in the woods along our driveway. We had a pair nest in a box about 10 years ago, but none seen or heard since except on hikes in the foothills. Given their aggressive nature I have mixed feelings of glad greetings and concerns for proliferation and its effect on my local Pacific and Bewick's wrens.
