...Today is also the "Return of the Swallows to Capistrano". Legend has it that the swallows took refuge in the Mission San Juan Capistrano from an irate innkeeper who destroyed their muddy nests. The swallows return each year, to the old ruined church on or around St. Joseph's Day, March 19, knowing they will be protected within the mission's walls.
