How quickly half the year has gone, even though many of us felt like life had come to a standstill! Just as we are about to experience a summer heatwave, the young swallows are signaling that the season is nearly over. They were born in barns all over the Loire Valley just a few months ago. Now they are gathering on the wires and chattering amongst themselves. They are preparing to travel far away, south to Africa. But don't envy them -- their journey is physically arduous and full of dangers. They would not travel unless they had to -- and they do, for they will not survive the winters here, with nothing to eat and inclement weather.
We hope we will be welcoming back both them and you in the spring of 2021.
