Siamese-twin birds found

These two barn swallows are conjoined twins, joined at the hip by skin and possibly tissue. They fell out of a nest and were found by a landowner in White County. On of them later died and the other was euthanized.

Unfortunately for the birds, they wouldn’t have stood a chance in the wild even if they were separated, because they never learned to fly.
