When songbirds attack. . .

I no longer need a doorbell. The swallows make a huge racket when someone steps near their porch. They were back in top form today so here's a little taste of what it's like to visit me these days. However, you won't get the full 360° effect of having your head circled.

The babies ARE grown -- slightly smaller than their parents but already flying! The one you see up close in the nest is one of them, who took off a little wobbly, but stayed airborne. We might get our porch back sooner than I thought!
