Hi all
Yep, sorry for the poor photos but had to grab my camera quickly to fire off a few shots before he disappeared - think I did well doing just that
Was sitting enjoying the peace and quiet when this lone small (smaller than a Starling - possibly Robin sized?) dark-coloured bird whizzed by at great speed like an arrow/fighter jet (in a straight line keeping the same height as he went along) from one side of the lake to the other and then was gone!
So any help appreciated - but it was definitely not a lone Swallow, Swift or Martin.
cheers
