[Maine-birds] Mockingbird and Barn Swallow fledged - Benton - Unity Rd

Greetings lovers of birds,

I have had the pleasure of listening to a mockingbird sing for hours the
last week.  This is the first mockingbird I have seen in Benton at my
farm.  Global Warming??

We had a large number (>30) of barn swallows jetting around this
morning.  The baby birds from a number of nests must have fledged the
last few days.   The barn swallows have nests in the carriage house,
barn and shed.  They are a delight to watch and listen to as they
chatter to each other as they circle around between the house, carriage
and barn.  I noticed a large number of barn swallows flying around the
field yesterday scooping up bugs and landing on the grass not cut
because it has been so wet.
