Bank Swallows

[AJ Montgomery]

One of two nesting boxes I built and mounted in my yard. It is starting to attract some attention:
These are Violet-green Swallows, not Bank Swallows as originally titled.

Very nice! A good example of upping the ISO to get the right shutter speed.

I really like them.
