Tree Swallow flying

 

This is the first of what likely will be three postings about Tree Swallows. The first is just pictures of them flying. The second will be of it feeding its chicks. The third will be a mystery I have with it concerning its treatment of the feathers of other birds.

One might wonder why I would start with these shots of it flying. Well, the Tree Swallow is a rather fast flyer, and it just was not easy getting a number of close-up sharp in-air shots. So I show the few I have. They are offered without comment.

    Those must have taken you a lot of time to collect. It’s near impossible to get those fast little birds in flight! Nice work!
