Thanks, Rick. I would imagine there's still lots of snow there.

If anyone wants to see four photos of a Barn Swallow flying over solid snow=

Hi Andy & All,
Nest building/repair was always a fun time on the farm unless you
were a cat/dog. As in using horse hair in plaster to confer strength,
the Swallows would use Dog or Cat hair. Swoop down from behind, grab a
beak load of hair on the back while entering climb mode. And be gone
before the pet could object.
