Howdy -

Some years ago we had actively nesting Barn Swallows at Grand Teton NP in
early September. Quite interesting how much later than the other swallow
species they can nest. I presume these are probably second broods?? (will
have to check BNA account for more information) In Moscow we often have Barn
Swallows near nesting locations along Paradise Ck. well into September.

thanks, Charles.
