Last year we were visited once again by barn swallows who built a nest just above a door leading from our deck into the house. Not wanting the birds to return to the same spot, we put a screen over the space they had previously nested. They would not be thwarted and returned this year to build their nest in the same spot. This time they tore up our door mat to gather bits of building material and build the nest into the screen. A few weeks back we had violent storms and the nest found its way to the deck floor. Not to be deterred, the birds began to build something on top of our security light. I’m not sure why they never finished.
