The swallows are massing on the lines

We thought yesterday there were more, today the sound of swallows massing on the lines shouting ''before long we are off to Africa'' can be heard. Yesterday we had the closest view of a golden oriole when one smashed into the salon window with a sickening thud. Fortunately it was dazed for a few minutes and then flew off leaving a trail of golden feathers.We never see our kestrels now, not even on the lines at '' kestrel corner'' All those pleaures to come again next spring and summer.
