I have had my Tree Swallows fledge over several days with the first two
returning to the nest for feeding throughout the day. A third fledged on
the third day, flying back to the nest repeatedly. The last two fledged
on 5th day, not returning. I have never observed this before. This
particular nest box has been used for 7 years & is on my deck, so
observation is easy. Have you observed the return of Tree Swallows to
the nest & fledging occuring over so many days? Will look forward to
your response.
