There is no getting away from it …

There is no getting away from the fact that we have never had so few swallows here as we have this year.

I so hope that they are late arriving.  At this rate next year there won’t be any swallows at all.

All my life I have seen swallows come and go.  It’s part of life and marks the seasons in a small way.

Yes in another part of the country Swallow Lady says that  last year she had  more swallows than ever.

I wonder if it depends on which migratory path the swallows took.  Wouldn’t it be fascinating and helpful if we knew that.
