    .. --------~----- Vol. 22(1), 1992 11 CLIFF SWALLOWS NESTING AT ROSS BARNETT RESERVOIR, MISSISSIPPI Mary P. stevens Mississippi Museum of Natural Science 111 N. Jefferson st. Jackson, MS 39202 On 9 May 1992, Steve and Carole Peterson and I observed Cliff Swallows (Hirundo pyrrhonota) at Ross Barnett Reservoir, Rankin Co., Mississippi, near a boat ramp located southeast of the Pelahatchie Bay bridge. The Cliff Swallows were gathering mud and flying to the bridge. From a boat, on 10 May, I observed Cliff Swallow nests under the bridge. On 10 May I also observed Cliff Swallows gathering mud in a parking lot southeast of the Barnett Reservoir spillway and flying to the underside of the spillway bridge on the south side of the dam. On 9 May I also saw Cliff swallows at the Mississippi highway 43 bridge over the Pearl River at the upper end of Ross Barnett Reservoir, Madison County. From a boat I found Cliff Swallow nests there on 6 July. These are the first recorded nests of Cliff Swallows in Rankin and Madison counties. On 19 June 1992, R. L. Jones and I counted 34 Cliff Swallow nests under the Pelahatchie bridge, but saw no Cliff Swallows. On 12 July I saw two Cliff Swallows on the east side of the bridge. Nests at this site were grouped in three locations under this bridge: 17 on the east side, 10 on the west, and 7 under the center span. All nests were attached to the concrete structure of the bridge, while Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica), which were nesting in abundance, had constructed their nests on the steel I-beams located under the center of the bridge.
