Sky full of swallows

I suppose the swallows must be getting ready to leave for Africa but I have never seen quite so much frenzied activity from them before.    Perhaps there has been a hatching of something delicious (if you are a swallow, that is) but looking out of any window I can see them darting everywhere and they do look as if they are feeding.   The sky is full of them for as far as I can see, not just immediately local  so if it is a hatching, it must be pretty widespread.  Perhaps they are stocking up for the journey.  I am always a bit sad when they leave but like all things seasonal, it is so lovely when they return.[:D]
