About the event:

Kenyon’s own Dr. Iris Levin has been studying barn swallows for over a decade, including the last seven years in Knox County. Barn swallows are one of the more social swallow species that tend to breed in colonies in man-made structures such as barns and culverts, or on porches and under the eaves of houses. During this Powerpoint presentation, Dr. Levin will share insights from her research on the social and mating behaviors of these charismatic birds.  Meet in the BFEC Resource Center.
