We headed south today and visited this mission. It is widely known for the swallows returning each year. Actually though, there was a spate of years that they didn't return. Due to urban growth, they could find higher buildings in the surrounding areas for nesting. Scientists have worked hard to keep them returning to the mission including playing a male swallow mating song to attract them in. We all toured at our own pace with the help of audio guides. The mission has had an interesting history. Afterwards we were able to meet up with Jean and Fenway to catch up.
