If were it, I'd have been having a quick tot of rum at the pub, but this bird had more important things to do, like feeding itself up on insects like all its hirundine friends in the village were. It was obviously just having a rest.
I took these pictures a few days ago, I wonder where it is now?

We've still got them here but it won't be long now. An Osprey turned up locally this week.
ReplyDeleteWhere is it now? Somewhere a good deal drier than here I would hope; not many insects on the wing on such a rainy day as this.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant. I've never managed a decent photo of a Swallow.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful birds. I always feel a tad melancholy when they leave our shores.
ReplyDeleteThank you all, those pics still came out looking very soft even at fast shuter speed. Poor light didn't help I guess.
