Phoebes and Swallows - What wonderful birds!

We have Cliff Swallows beginning their annual nest building under the eaves of our house.  How I like to watch them!



We get Say's Phoebes around our house, but that's it.  I miss the Eastern Phoebes from home, and in San Diego we saw Black Phoebes everywhere - I love them!



If you'd like to try to attract phoebes and swallows to your yard, here are some plans for the appropriate structures.  Good luck!
