O.K., O.K.....Luck, schmuck, the birds ARE nesting in the barn, but NOT above the stalls on top of the lights. If I had let them nest on the light fixtures, I would have had fried swallows when I turned on the lights. In case anyone wondered how I discouraged them, I just knocked down the mud they brought in each day for about a week and they finally gave up that site. They started a new (two, actually) nest site in the rafters on the cross piece. As long as we don't get mites, lice or whatever, they are welcome. Sounds like popular opinion goes with leaving the swallows stay, so stay they will. Thanks for all your input. ;-) Mary O. North Coast Equestrian Center Grand Marais, MN
