HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello and Help Please

If the weather is warm like it is today like a lot of people the door to the Garden is open but today I've had a visitor "Twice" can you believe a "SWALLOW"   I have checked and it is definitely a swallow, blue black, white breast, red face and the long forked tail, my worry is if he wants to make his home here and I want the door closed he/she is going to be in trouble........ as beautiful as it is and to be so close I'm a little concerned I don't want it harmed, thinking of fitting up a bead hanger in the doorway to stop it entering, any thoughts?

Many thanks

A bead curtain will probably work.

You could of course catch it and tell it to go back to Africa, cos it shouldn't be here at the moment !!!!!!

He never did return but I now have a bead curtain, amazing he was only a few feet away.

We've had a couple of swallows round here (Southern Auvergne) for more than a week. Are they really early? Or is it just spring that's late?

Same here in the Charente Maritime, been here for last three weeks, I did think they were early!

Swallows arrived here in Wiltshire last weekend. Slightly earlier than last year
