Breeding season for cliff swallows disrupted by multiple residents ...Middle East

SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, Calif.—The birds fly over 6,000 miles from South America to Santa Barbara to build their nests. Though they used to build their nests near cliffs, erosion and human development have forced them to adapt. Nests can be found underneath concrete structures like bridges and on the eaves of houses.   The Santa Barbara Audubon Society says it’s illegal to take down the nests even on private property. They say the nests can only be knocked down once breeding season is over. “The adult swallows will often use the remnants of a nest from the previous year. So if you knocked down those nests during the season that the birds are not here, it makes the area less attractive to the birds when they do return,” said Jessie Altstatt from the Santa Barbara Audubon Society The Department of Fish and Wildlife says the nesting season for the birds is from February 15th through September 1st.
