The boys were out playing catch while waiting for the school bus and by their action I can tell they saw it headed their way. You can see the boys' backpacks sitting at the edge of the drive where it meets the highway which is where the bus picks them up. If you enlarge the photo, you'll see a "blurry" thing close up just to the right of the sidewalk. It's a barn swallow, swooping thru the columns of the front porch. They have a nest of babies and get very "excited" anytime someone is out on the porch. The crop growing in the fields across the highway (and surrounding our land) is corn grown for livestock feed.
