Barn Swallows-true story

Posted by dbernie on May 20, 2011 at 15:32:47 from (4.252.129.21):

My corn crib is a machine shed now, spend alot of time out there, even if just sittin.

Barn Swallows nest in there every spring.

They are used to me bein around, and sometimes when just sittin,

I'll whistle and talk softly to them, they will jump down a little lower, and chirp back at me--back and forth.

Anyway, this mornin', sittin in the kitchen, birds startin to get around about daybreak. Shortly after, I keep hearin' alot of squawkin and chirpin at my kitchen window--50+ degrees out, had the windows open.

Eventually, I walk over to the window to see what all the noise is about,

(kept seein birds buzzin the window, too.)

Get to the window, and a barn swallow just kind of hovers there, chirpin up a storm at me through the window screen.

I thought for a moment, then put my boots on, walked out, opened the corn crib door a couple feet wide. Before I got back to the house, I saw three barn swallows flyin into the corn crib through the door I had just opened.

Take from that what you will, but I honestly think they were askin me to open the door. Never had anymore squawkin/chirpin and Barn Swallows buzzin the kitchen window after that.

I'm still amazed, just thought I'd share.

Call me crazy if you want to... :lol:

Today's Featured Article - The Cletrac General GG and the BF Avery A - A Bit of History - by Mike Ballash. This article is a summary of what I have gathered up from various sources on the Gletrac General GG and the B. F. Avery model A tractors. I am quite sure that most of it is accurate. The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac. ... [Read Article]
