Overcrowding in Leetonia


Sorry about the blurry picture, but you get the idea. These four barn swallows under our back porch are struggle to find enough room in their nest. Seems mom and dad didn't plan on 4 youngsters surviving and it won't be long until one of them has to leave. They were all preening and stretching their wings out this morning, while I ate breakfast. Mom and Dad have a full time job finding enough bugs to keep the youngsters satisfied.

I am pretty sure this is the only kind of over crowding Leetonia will experience in the near future and one that keeps us very entertained.
