Well, now you know why they call me Duh-g.

It's getting close to that time of year when the swallows come back
to North Seattle Community College.
About the third weekend in August a large flock of barn swallows
comes in and spends a couple nights near the surge pond.

There's a lot of construction near the pond, so it will be interesting
to see if they return, and if they hang around.

It is quite wonderous to see this moving cloud up in the sky and then
have come swooping down right past you.
