    I guess this could be one of the northernmost nesting pairs in the Mediterranean

    Nice to see these birds sitting for a change. Gives one a chance to see their beautiful plumage.

    Mid-air refuelling

    Parent feeding young bird in flight . They meet repeatedly in mid air . Got the whole sequence of them flying towards each other and disengaging after feeding. Shot using 7fps . Lucky to have them unobstructed in this shot.

    I was watching a pair of Red-rumped Swallows near where we live, cleaning out their nests and re-lining it with soft downy-thistle seed-heads. So house-proud but oh! so comfortable!

    My first bird close-up

    Another from my Southern holidays. This is something Ive never done before, to crop a bird pic as a close-up. But this cutie was perched in the shade of a veranda on a window grille, rusty and with signs of plenty of swallows perched through the years (you know what I mean, ;)), so the setting...
