SWALLOWS: The swallows (B1) didn’t always return to San Juan Capistrano, according to an expert on Father Junipero Serra, who founded the mission in 1776. . . . The 18th-Century Franciscan, whose statue (above) is in the mission, made no mention of the birds’ return, says Father Noel F. Moholy, a leading backer of sainthood for Serra.
