There were 3, triple nests, 2 old double nests and 2 double nests with one cup currently occupied. Most nests were in rafters or on shelves safe from rats, howerver one old nest was located in a sunken (below-ground level) ledge and another was in a barrel (drum) horizontal on the ground. Most old nests were clean, but some contain dung clear up to the brim & must have been used as winter roost sites. Three others contained remains of the actual nest activities. Two contained one buried egg each & another contained an egg & a small (2 day old) young bird. Some buildings contained several old nests or old nests plus a new nest, but no building contained two active nests at once. Each building searched was tabulated as to presence & absence of old + new nests, presence of suitable nest sites, and type of building.
