Yucca stems are handy perches for young swallows who tire easily.
Young swallow: Feed me! Feed me!
Adult swallow: You're big enough to find your own bugs. Get with the program.
Young swallow: I'll chirp for food.
Young swallow: What's a bird got to do to get a meal around here?
And with that, he flew off into the sunset in search of his own bugs.
Wish I could give him all of mine.
ReplyDeleteThey need to be like the chickens and start going after bigger prey...tarantulas
ReplyDeleteOr fly to Capistrano
THE END.... pretty silhouettes but not a fan of swallows. When I was little they would dive bomb us every time we went into the barn.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pics, Carson!
ReplyDeleteI love swallows! There are a lot of empty nests now at the train station. They've all gone on to wherever they go when they are not hatching babies. I enjoy seeing them go and come back every year! =D
