John,
The largest nesting group/colony of Cave Swallows that I know of in
Austin are under the bridge that is over the creek below the Walter E.
Long Lake spillway. This is on FM 973 just north of FM 969:

You shouldn't have any problem seeing the swallows there.

Hi. I will be traveling to Austin from San Francisco this weekend, 5/28-31Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at
with my wife. The main purpose of the trip will be to celebrate our
anniversary and my wife isn't a birder so I will have limited time to
bird. But, since this is my first time to the Texas Hill Country, I hope
to see a few lifers and I'd greatly appreciate your help on some reliable
places to quickly see some of your specialty birds.
My two main targets are Black Capped Vireo and Cave Swallow.
