Okay, I think I've teased everyone long enough. Here are pictures of the Cliff Swallow chicks from the morning of June 18th:
You can just barely see them peeking out of the right-most nest entrance. Here's a zoomed-in view:
These little guys are hella cute.

What a coincidence! My mom just posted about the swallows nesting in the eaves of her local Safeway today - http://walkingprescott.blogspot.com/2009/06/when-swallows-go-back-to-thesafeway.html

It never ceases to amaze me how adaptable and tolerant birds can be. If you give them even the slightest chance they will try to follow their natural behaviors. Cliff Swallows are awesome. I've even seen them nesting under the eves of the Flagstaff Wal-Mart store.
Those pics of the swallow nests at the Safeway store are really cool, BTW.
