These cliff swallows were hoping that the mother bird was bringing a tasty snack. Near Casper's recreational area, about 10 miles east of Old San Juan Capistrano Mission, CA.

Sounds good.
I'm thinking about having a PN SD Co and Baja get together. What do you think?
No, but I commute up there regularly. Prefer sd county, but fun to explore south OC, too. Fun to see what is the same and what is different from a project Noah perspective.
KarenP, do you live up there behind the Orange Curtain?
Thanks Atul. The nesting starts in the spring and ends around the end of June. This location is 10 miles East of the San Juan Capistrano Mission famous for the swallows.
this is absolutely superb a spotting!!
Thanks Ava! Typing on my new mobile device. Can you tell? I added this nest to the project.
Thanjpkspp
