Subject: [Tweeters] Ridgefield Swallows - None in the afternoon

I had errands in Clark County this Noon, so Mom (Olive) and I went up
to Ridgefield NWR for one loop on the River "S" Unit (~4mi W of I-5 at
Exit 14 in SW Washington; http://www.fws.gov/ridgefieldrefuges/ ).

I saw No Swallows at all this afternoon. I saw Wilson Cady there who
mentioned that he only saw a couple of Swallows. Saturday there were a
couple hundred; Monday comes, and then there were none.


With the warm weather today, I could see plenty of bugs, but no
Swallows hunting them.


I will check again tomorrow as I will be there most of the day.
