[AT] Fighter escort for old iron

[Gene Dotson]

    My escorts are the purple martins. The Amish have martin houses on posts 
to encourage them. Any time I am mowing lawn or working in the hay fields, 
they are performing their acrobatics.

While mowing today the swift’s were out in full force. I call them my 
fighter escort.  It’s hard to get a picture of all of them at once, but I 
had 20 to 30 swifts saving me from all the evil bugs in the field that the 
haybine was kicking up.  It amazing how close they are willing to get to me 
and how acrobatic they are.  It’s one of my favorite parts of mowing. They 
keep me entertained.  I have one circled but there a few more in the pic
