One Day i saw a Swallow catching a Feather. It. Caught the Feather then let it go then caught it again and took it to its nest.

One went straight to the nest while the other Sot on a Board quite near and waited until its turn to put the mud it had on. The nest. T did not stay to put the mud in shape like the first. Quite a while afterwards they came in with nothing next time they came in and sat Side by Side and Twitt ered for quite a while then Lew out Guin.
