world Bird & Watery Wednesday ~ A Matter of Security


We stopped at Anglesea, Victoria for a spot of lunch and were
not the only hungry customers. Above a doorway right in the
main street, with the best local protection, these Barn Swallows
had found the perfect nesting spot.


Watching and waiting for a change of shift . . .
Here comes the cavalry!
Sorry about the blurring, Swallows are quicker than I am.


That was quick, where's he gone again?



World Bird Wednesday is all a-flutter, so click on the logo and join in.

    Great post and photos! Maybe the security company can get those Swallows some ear plugs in case that alarm goes off.

    Barwon security should adopt these wonderful birds as their new mascot. It's a natural!
