Well so far so good  :) ,& going by the pile of you know what in the porch  :x ,i would say Dad's doing a grand job  :thumbsup: I would think another5-6 days & they'll be off feeding themselves.

I really love swallows,we have loads here every year,& it's great to see them swooping over the garden,deliberately teasing the dogs,& don't they chatter a lot :D

Love the photos Haycroft  :thumbsup:

HEY THOUGHT THAT SWALLOWS NESTING ON YOUR HOUSE WAS SUPPOSED TO BRING GOOD LUCK! NOT THE CASE FOR THE POOR MUM....
 
Update.......All 5 babies are doing fine & should be out the nest in a day or so :thumbsup: Dad has really done a fab job,he must be knackered :sweating:

The only thing that worries me is if they end up on the floor when they first try to fly,as they'll be quickly demolished :eek: Think i'm going to rig up some sort of perch for them so at least it'll be easier for them to get in & out of the nest.

Good luck for the long trip ahead... :luck: :luck:
