Barn Swallow

Mark went for a walk today at Coffee Creek Watershed Preserve and saw a barn swallow in the rafters of the barn pavilion: https://www.audubon.org/field-guide/bird/barn-swallow


"One swallow does not a summer make, nor one fine day; similarly one day or brief time of happiness does not make a person entirely happy."
 
An allusion to the return of swallows at the start of the summer season. From a remark by Aristotle (384 BCE - 322 BCE).
