Box 29
Last Sunday the wind was blowing hard but that did not deter these little Tree Swallows from spending their day looking for a suitable summer residence and it sure seemed like box 29 was high on their list of desirable homes.

A quick resting spot on the roof was in order and acceptable to both shoppers at box 29.

Three Swans
A swan and her cygnets swim past aware of our presence yet relaxed on a semi-frozen pond in Grand Teton National Park. Such small eyes for such large birds.
