At Reid's Century Farm in West Advocate they used to have a couple of
hundred Cliff Swallow nests.   This was in the early 90's.  Two years ago
there were only 14, and this year there are but two.  The Reids have done
nothing to discourage the swallows, but the swallows just keep declining.
Still quite a few Barn Swallows, though.

Elsewhere I have twice tried for the ones that used to nest at the IMP
building at Stanfield airport, but no luck,

Anyone check the power plant at the Annapolis Royal causeway?
