I had my first flock of chickens at 10 years old. I peddled eggs to all the old ladies in the community. We showed steers when I was in school and every afternoon when I’d feed and pet my steers, Barn Swallows would be over my head, building nests, or feeding nestlings. One of my dads good friends had Martins on a Powerline. I’d go sit under the gourds and watch the parents bring in insects to feed them. I’ve always enjoyed any Swallow species. I built 8 Bluebird boxes when I was a senior in HS. I built them for guys in freshman AG that couldn’t build one themselves. It was their class project. I guaranteed them and A and got to keep the boxes. Then I got a college degree from AU in poultry science. A bird degree, but a more specialized one. I have studied them nearly all my life. It’s just a part of who I am.

If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14
