Swallows perching on road and bushes
July 19th, 2015 by tdomf_e48efDate of sighting: 7/18/15
Just north of the Walker Creek diversion pond there were dozens of cliff swallows on the road and in the tops of bushes. Our approaching cars flushed them into the air, but as we left they settled back down in the tops of bushes. I haven’t seen this behavior before and suspect they were eating insects.
