Squatters at the Fire Station

I often go outside with the Fire Chief while he has his smoke. It's a good time to talk job "stuff" over without the constraints of a desk or phone.

A few weeks back I had noticed a wasp nest on the ridge end and asked that he get someone to take care of it. Imagine my surprise when the wasp nest morphed into a swallow's nest. And.... babies are flying already.

First a picture of the ridge end that I accidentally snapped when trying to focus on the nest. Look how blue the sky is!



Finally got the camera focused and steady. Four shots of the bird(s). You can see the abandoned wasp nest behind the swallows' nest. Here's FLMFPD's resident immature barn swallows.
