Remember my post about the hungry nest of just-hatched swallows in my neighbors’ garage? HERE is a link to it if you didn’t see it. Well, above are four current photos of the hatchlings, who have now flown the nest. Photos taken on their terrace by my neighbor David Bershad.
Here are the same birdies before in a photo taken by me in their garage:

I love watching them grow from fuzzy babies with big open beaks to birds with shiny feathers. I don’t always take pictures. Sometimes — often — I just watch them. Beautiful pictures. So those are swallows?

Yes. That’s what David and Sergio say. I checked it out and they are indeed barn swallows. Pretty little things.

They don’t look like anything I see around here. They are very pretty. Rather finch-like.

Happy to oblige! I just clicked on the link to the other post to see the babies, and noticed the date!

When I hear “barn swallows” I think of some plain little brown bird. Had no idea they were this colorful.
