One swallow arrived this morning, valiantly diving on the starlings that
have taken over one kestrel box. I have not yet put up the gourds where
the swallows nest... it's been too wet. I *think* this was a tree
swallow but it was far, even for my binocs. Trees usually precede the
"violent"-greens here, I think, and this one sounded more twittery to me.
Do Tree Swallows usually arrive first in western Oregon? What have
others been seeing in Yamhill County?
