Was driving the back roads of Oxford County in Southern Ontario on April 21 and came across what I thought was tree swallows till I got home and looked at the photo. What I actually managed to get was 9 Barn Swallows, 7 Tree Swallows and 1 Cliff Swallow into this shot before they flew off

I never didn't realize that they migrated in mixed company like that......very interesting and good to know.

Thanks for your observation and care to attention of the little things that matter like our swallows. Love them.

Good catch! (Maybe they were helping out at Amish barn raising.)

Thanks everyone but the credit goes to the birds that day they actually sat there for quite a while before one flew off and the rest followed, I was just lucky it worked out that way.
