Famed swallows of Capistrano nest in country club

"The cliff swallows of the Mission San Juan Capistrano have made a new home at a ritzy new country club.

The migratory birds that annually return to the historic South Orange County church flew right past it this spring, choosing to make their nests at the new Vellano Country Club in Chino Hills, about 50 miles away."

Mission to Save Migratory Birds Lands in Fairfield

"They are scared, dehydrated and hungry, but they are the lucky ones. Nearly 300 migratory birds arrived at the U.S. Coast Guard base at McClellan Business Park in Sacramento late Monday, on their way to a new lease on life.

As workers off-loaded the birds in crates and boxes from a Coast Guard C-130 transport plane, workers with the International Bird Rescue Research Center (IBRRC) in Fairfield said the quick journey will give many of the birds another chance at life."
