    Hmph, indeed. Swallows are not only a joy to watch but I believe they are adept at catching bugs. We need them, as we need all wildlife.

    Sounds like a job for a letter to the editor. My $0.02 is if one does not want to have wildlife around the home please indicate that by waving your hands wildly and volunteering to move to the inner city to a nice cement cozy basement apartment with a view of a parking lot

    If we enjoy trees, green and chirpy birdies .... then we need to protect them.

    Yes, sometimes nature's inconvenient and messy; the poison oak you just can't get rid of, deer - is there anything they wont eat? Possums - I'm sorry but they are just not cute, ants - I hate ants .... but they were there first.

    I learned in HS science class that nature bats last.

    When Mother Earth says "you know, I have a last nerve and you just got on it" and we know she will it's not going to be pretty for us or our children. We're on the swallows home, the swallows are not on our homes.
