Perhaps even I didn’t expect that not long after, when we went to the countryside to visit my parents-in-law, we discovered that there were two lovely chicks beside the swallow’s nest, eagerly waiting for their parents to come back to feed them! My mother-in-law told me that this is the second litter this spring. The first litter hatched in the spring has already left its parents and lived independently. No wonder I didn’t see it when I came last time. My mother-in-law told me that at that time, the young swallow was being taken away by her parents to learn to fly!
I looked up at the nest and found that the parents of the chicks would come back to feed them every few minutes. The time they stayed at the nest was very short, even within a few seconds, in the blink of an eye. There is no trace. The parents of the young swallows are busy going back and forth like this, which shows how hard it is to raise their children! I took a closer look and found that the two chicks were not generally large, but one was slightly larger and the other was smaller. Interestingly, the slightly larger chick always liked to stand tall and dominate the terrain. , once it sees its parents coming back to feed, it can’t wait to open its little mouth. Like many other animals, the little guy has to face competition and challenges for survival as soon as he is born!
At this time, my mother-in-law was telling me all kinds of anecdotes about swallows with a smile on her face, many of which I may never know from books or other places, such as the battle between two pairs of swallows to compete for each other. There was a big fight over a larger swallow's nest, and no one was willing to give up until the winner was determined. This also strongly proves that although the swallows have placed their nests in our homes, they have always followed the law of survival of the fittest in nature.
At this time, listening to my mother-in-law’s vivid and interesting description, and looking at the smile blooming on her face, I suddenly felt extremely happy and relieved! "There are countless carved beams and painted buildings, and you can live wherever you like without asking the owner. The red collar stirs up the fragrance of the flowers, and the green tail sweeps away the March rain." "Spring in the Jade House" by Song Zhengyu of the Qing Dynasty. "Swallow" can't help but jump into my mind and heart, thank you, smart, cute little swallow, for accompanying me through vibrant springs and passionate summers.
After the beginning of autumn, the weather becomes cooler day by day. In a blink of an eye, the rice fields will be golden again, and the young swallows that have learned to fly will go to the south to spend the winter with their parents.
The little swallows who are drifting away will still miss us. Will they come back to meet us next year? Suddenly, the long-lost inspiration suddenly came to visit, as if a stream that had dried up for a long time suddenly emerged with clear springs, rejuvenating the vitality of life, and a song from the bottom of my heart was singing
The grass is green and the flowers are fragrant
Spring is warm and the flowers are blooming
The swallows return to their hometown after thousands of miles
March in March is full of new atmosphere
The birds are singing and the swallows are dancing, and the spring is long
Little swallows in pairs
Pairs of pairs are circling the old beams
The old owner is full of joy
New Year Tianxin Hope
Don’t live up to the good spring days
The swallows go back and forth on the field ridge
Decorate the old house with mud and grass in their mouths
each other Come on, sing loudly
Little swallow, go through the hall
Business in order to support the family
The arrival of the swallow is auspicious everywhere
In the blink of an eye, the rice turns yellow
The hot summer turns cool
Yan'er is going to the south again
How can I forget your graceful figure
True love Keep it in mind
Little Swallow, don’t forget it
The flowers will bloom in the coming spring
I’ll spend a good time with you again
