Tree swallow eggs

Description:
Description: English: A clutch of tree swallow eggs. The tree swallow nests are constructed using feathers and bits of dried grass. I build the nest boxes using 5" diameter PVC pipe and mounting on fencepost. I have a removable lid to check on birds and to clean the box at the end of the nesting season. PVC is 'predator proof' and the tree swallows love them!!! Important to cut grooves below the hole for the parents to rest before entering the hole. Very high success rate using these nest boxes.
