Housemartins bringing you good luck if they nest on your house is a folktale/superstition that I have a real fondness for.
The year I had my son we had about 20 nests in the eaves of the place we lived!
When we moved into our current house there were 3 – but year after year the nests have been used by Sparrows.
Until this year the Sparrows came along and broke the nests, the Housemartins have rebuilt and we have Housemartins nesting again, so……. Housemartins = good luck, I hope so (not baby good luck this time!) – but if not then there’s always the cuteness factor.

I have no clue how I found you, but I am so grateful.
Your photos just astound me. You are a truly gifted photographer.
Thank you for such beauty.
Isn’t it such a gift to “see” such abundance of wonderfulness through another person’s eyes?
I think so.
Whew!
