    How long can a female tree swallow leave her hatchlings. We've seen no activity and there are newly hatched swallows in our birdhouse. We would be saddened to see them die.

    She can leave them for hours. You may not be seeing all the times she comes. After the first 3 days, her visits will lessen. Birds grow and mature quickly (just a matter of a couple of weeks). I'm sure she and the male are on the job ;)
