Barn Swallows

Well work is really busy these days, but I did manage to grab the camera and get out last Sunday.

Just one lonely Barn Swallow (he stopped for only a moment).

I love seeing these birds they have such personality. Great job being able to capture them they are very fast and seldom pose for very long.

Very nice Leon

Timing is everything with these little buggers! Very nice.

You certainly managed to catch a pretty one Leon!
I'm coming to learn that the pose in your 1st image is "classic"....mouth wide open
I'll also have to say what an interesting study in isolation of subject by DOF your 3rd image portrays. That one belongs in a photo text book simply for that reason. Nicely done!

Lovely capture Leon. So unusual to find them still!

Thanks for all the GREAT comments folks, I agree that these little speedsters do not still still!!

After taking a closer look at the 3rd pic, I can see that I was very close to missing my focus (based on observed DOF).
