I had the pleasure to observe and photography an Eastern Bluebird in Woodville, Kings Co this morning. There is only one bird unfortunately, at this time. It arrived a week ago.

Nearby, we also watched a pair of Cliff Swallows feeding two young jammed in a nest under the peak of a farm house. In the same yard several Barn Swallows were hawking and flying in and out of a workshop where there was a nest on top of a fluorescent light. 

A couple of kilometers to the east of Woodville, on Parrish road there is another Cliff Swallow nest under the peak of a garage. This nest is easily observed from the road. The Cliff Swallows seem to come back every year to the same building and rebuild, even though their mud home had been destroyed since last year.

Images of the Woodville birds are on ebird.
