Field Notes

Description:

Resting on a high ledge were two swallows watching over a typical Aussie BBQ

Habitat:

Suburban back yard.

Notes:

Not nesting but resting. There was a plague of laybirds in the yard below but I didn't see them take any. Widespread in southern Australia and much of the rest of the world.
