Birdie update
Well, our little birdie friends have hatched! We have counted at least four little baby swallows. Right now they are still pretty ugly, since they are just now starting to grow their feathers. It's been fun watching their parents fly around to catch bugs to feed the babies with (swallows are aerial bug catchers so they swoop and glide around until they catch something.) There has even been a cat who lurks around trying to figure out a way to get to the birdies. Matt has had to "gently" remind him with the air-soft gun that kitty-cats are NOT welcome around here. (Don't worry, it doesn't really hurt the cat too badly. The plastic pellets that the gun uses feels like a bee-sting)
