I had four boxes for violet-green swallows at my other house. Dave Fouts said he thought I could get them to nest here on the houseboat and showed me where to put a box. I bought one at Audubon and hung it last year -- but, no swallows. This year, though, they nested. Here is a baby the day before they fledged. I saw three of them in the box the previous day, their little faces and beaks awaiting the parent bringing food.
