As someone who sets up half a dozen nesting boxes for tree swallows each spring I was delighted to see the birdboxes. Hopefully efforts were made at the time to discourage invasive house sparrows from occupying them, their having been declared a major pest. Already too late for North America as they had already proven to be non-eradicable as early as 1910 and have contributed significantly to a serious decline in our native cavity nesting songbird population since.
