[5/23] Saco River swallows...

[Josh Fecteau]

Hi all,

I spent some time swallow watching this morning from Jubilee Park in Saco, and nearby locations. 5 species were present, including Tree, Barn, Bank, Northern Rough-winged, and at least one Cliff Swallow. They were swarming around the fish passageway adjacent to the Spring Island dam.

I suspect it's a real challenge being a swallow these days, especially on a cool, wet, and windy day like today, after so many cloudy/damp days. I hope they manage to find enough food to hang in there.
