Yeah, and even the not-so-green federal agency I work for even has Purple Martin houses (apartments on a post) and Wood Duck boxes. It is fun to hear the manly Cajuns get all gushy about baby birds. As many of our locks are out in the middle of nowhere, purple martins (a type of swallow) and bats are the ONLY mosquito control available.
Oh, I forgot to mention that Bonnie Cat seemed to be interested in the baby swallows too - but I think it may be more along the lines of interactive toys. She and her sister, Erin, has been TORMENTED by a mockingbird that has a nest in the shrubs out front. Poor kitties just want to catch some rays (they're old).
