I was fortunate to spot an active Tree Swallow nest. In this farm fence birdhouse, along one of the many gravel sideroads in Wellington County, near Guelph Ontario. Sat in the car for an hour. Watching both parents, making trip after trip, back and forth. Both, with a beak full of insects, for what looked like two beaks inside the nest.
