I've got the usual crowd of them in my carport... Might be a few less than normal but not noticeably so.

I was out there the other day cleaning and organizing. Ran a couple of deck screws into the side of the little breezeway storage shed to hang up a push broom. I put the screws up about 8 feet to let the broom handle hang down.

There was a swallow nest about a foot and a half away from the top of the broom.

I no sooner got done and mama swallow came back and saw the broom. She perched nearby and chirped and squawked at me until I took the broom down. So I dropped the screws down a foot or two and hung the broom back up... She seemed satisfied with that arrangement, so I left it.

Good foe you Mike.
