One of these is the barn swalow, the fork-taiied swaiiow which swoops and zooms around a homestead ta capture insects on the wing. Originally restricted ta rock crevices and overbang- ing cliffs, these swaiiows have made good use of barns and garages as supports for their mud and' grass nests. Some have eveni been seen 'nestîng on slow minoing boats and trains, wiIh iust surely be unique te, thisý species. Somietimies, however, barn swailows insist on nesting in locations that are inconve- nient ta the bomeowner, or wbere their drappings create a.nuisance. Often people who Leadership Course at Sir San- fard Fleming College in Peterborough. would like a pair af chatter- ing swalaows as a ne igbbour have trouble attracting the birds ta nest. Now a naturalist from Del Rio, Texas bhas come up with a shelf design wbich seems ta serve the demanding specifications of these flying fiytrapis, and should help a pair of swallows find a home Where it suits you best. The sheif itseif is simple - a piece of wood 6 ta 'S inches square with a 2 in ch waoden rim ail around. The secret seems ta be its location, clôse ta an eave or ceiling with only two inches gap ieft abave the rifm. This narrow gap discaurages ather com- petitars such as the bouse sparrow, and the shelf alluws the swallaws ta build their lining of saft grasses directly inside, rather than building the usual mud frame. Two other factors are im- portant. If yau can, place t he sheif on the sauth side of a building, at ieast eight feet froni the graund. And keep it at least three feet away from any pasts or lattices that could be climbed by a cat or other predator. According ta the Audubon Enicylopedia of Birds, swallows b ave more than enaugh hazards ta cape with on their annual migrations ta Ar-genitinai and in their endless searcbi for insects. Bain swailows- have been lost at sea, for exmpie, when low- fiing b1irds weye struck by wvaves, and one wýas even kilI- ed! by ýLgolf bhail aven a golf coWu. A simple sheif'is ail ffhat's needed ta belp out these attractive littie birds, and ta help keep your yard free of insects as well.
