You're welcome

As I hiked back to the where I'd parked my car, alongside Hagley Park, I passed some Welcome Swallows hunting over a meadow. Now and then they would land on some fence posts there - never on the one closest to where I stood, obviously, but I think this was the best Welcome Swallow shot I got on...

Sleepy Welcome Swallow

We have a family that tends to visit the backyard for an hour or so in the late afternoon. The youngsters nap on the washing line waiting for mum to bring some food. There were 6 on the line today. My routine for the past few days is , get home from work, disentangle whatever blackbird that is...

The Landing

Not a hard one to get with today's equipment . Just set up the camera and tripod and blast away as they come in to land. Bound to get some decent shots LOL. Ken

They are busy collecting mud for their nests. This one was sitting in the middle of the road and made it easy to photograph

'Waiting'

I managed to visit Eynesbury and found this beauty sitting on the decking over-looking the lake waiting to be fed. One of many younsters, how on earth do the babies know which is mum or dad out of the dozens flitting around skimming the lake for food :) Hope you all enjoy!
