Birds again, and "Lyonesse"

The birds which I surprised the other day were barn swallows; it wasn't until today that I got a good look at their tails (which are deeply forked, one of the telltales for barn swallows). They seem to have built a nest atop my porchlight. This could have interesting consequences over the next weeks.

Anyway, I finished rereading the Lyonesse trilogy today. ( Review )
