[SBB] TRES ready to nest



Hello SBBers,
 
The two TREE SWALLOWS (TRES) that checked out nesting cavities yesterday at Church Avenue and De Paul Circle in San Martin returned today, 1/6/06 at 9 am with a third TRES.  A few minutes later there were at least nine TRES (maybe more) soaring around the neighborhood and investigating anything that could pass for a nesting cavity.  Now, as of 2 pm, it is warm without a trace of a breeze and the TRES are still foraging and looking for places to nest.  At least half appear to be mature birds and their familiarity with potential breeding sites leads me to believe that these mature birds are probably returning nesters.  Either the mature birds have forgotten that Winter is yet to come, or they know something that I don't know.
