This hand-shaped nest for barn swallows is ideal placed inside stables, barns, warehouses, archways and garages. it is important to ensure that birds have constant access during the breeding periods (window left ajar, ventilation pipe or open stable door).

Barn swallows will return from their winter quarters to nest at the same site each year, and will often raise several broods during the course of the summer.
