Hi folks, I know these guys have been seen around the state for over a week now, but the Northern Rough-winged Swallows have returned to Walker Valley (Tremont) in easter Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The nest along the Middle Prong of the Little River, and I'm assuming their arrival here means it's time to start looking for nests.
