Northern Rough-winged Swallow

I just saw our Northern Rough-Winged Swallow for the first time this year. Last year they built a nest on the drainpipe outside the kitchen window. A couple weeks ago that nest was taken down: Billie Sue found it on the ground. I suspect the swallow took it down to eliminate competitors. But I hadn't seen him and didn't know where the nest might be. I just now saw him out my office window perching on the bedroom porch. Nice to have the fellow back. http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/northern_rough-winged_swallow/id
