First Swallow

Saw first one then three swallows this morning. They were flying close to their traditional nesting site so, hopefully these are staying and not just passing through.
It is interesting to see how birds appear to return year after year to the same places. By that I mean, not just to the same area but very close to the same nest site. Recently, I have observed yellow hammer, chaffinch, greenfinch, linnet, and blackcap all singing from the very same perch where I saw them last year (not all; on the same perch of course).
