'Fast flyer!!!' (Hirundo neoxena)

I had been trying to get another flight shot of these fast flying birds, so I went down the creek and waited for one to come over the fence into my view, after several attempts I got this one but missed it in the downloads, so here it is to share with you all, hope you like it!!

I am sooo impressed. They are extremely fast and twist and turn to such a degree that (for me) impossible to catch. Congratulations.
