I must also add that I see hundreds of Tree Swallow moving west starting at this time of the year over the creeks, this year maybe 10% of the Barn Swallows. At least in my Purple Martin colony where I have a Tree Swallow gourd away, I found only one or two survive out of four or five,where I never had casualties and in Mashomack many were found dead in the Blue Bird houses, because of the many Noreasters.this spring. Maybe, better live Barn Swallows than Tree Swallows Orhan Shelter Island
