They have flown…
Yesterday morning, after the sky warmed; they all gathered in a huge bunch
And —-left!
I will miss them.
I tried to make the most of the time they were with us, for I knew they would not always be here.
Good-bye, my little friends. Our house and buildings will be waiting here for your return next Spring.
BUT WAIT!!!!
The passer-throughs- are here! YAY! I still get to have swallows on the wires and singing in the air.
So, although, they won’t be here long, I will have a few each day for a wee spell.
AND THAT! My Friends makes all the difference!
From my world to your heart,

They certainly don’t wear out their welcome.

All my red-wing black birds up and disappeared last week. At least my bird seed bill won’t be so outrageous for awhile.

It’s terrible when the song birds leave. I’m always so excited when they come back!

Your swallows are so special – and they sooo love your house to raise their families! Look forward to their return!
I still have hummers, although fewer and fewer numbers each day. Like you, just enjoying them while they are here!

I have very few Hummingbirds now. Down from 12 feeders to just three. Sad. But I don’t want them caught in the snow.

I’m thinking they are…it’s really terribly cold for them now. 48* at night. I hope they are with you soon.
