Very cool to learn of the multi-species juvenile birds potentially
looking for food from the Bank swallows. I guess a meal is a meal.
I didn't have time to check on the Tupperville Bank swallow colony this
year, nor the Eastern bluebirds in Bear River that nested there last
year in a nest box. The season flies by all too quickly. Sad to see
them go.

Last night I took a drive to Broad Cove. I watched two juvenile
bank swallows being fed by adults on the wires beside the road.
Interesting was that two or three yellow-rumped warbler
juveniles and barn swallow juveniles and black-capped chickadee
juveniles kept landing beside the juvenile bank swallows and
sometimes crowded them to the point of making them move. I got
the impression that they were looking for free handouts from the
adults bank swallows when they came in to feed the young. I've
