A pretty good hour in Oklahoma City

Wife is in the hospital. I took a walk around the hospital this PM and got some really lucky shots.

Barn Swallows on their nests:

A Mockingbird going straight up:

A Common Nighthawk. It's a wonder I even saw it with my tired old eyes:

A Baltimore Oriole. First one I've seen in years:

Not claiming high quality, but pretty good for me.

I tried to get the Barn Swallows on the wing, but just couldn't track them good enough. Got a few, but nothing sharp enough to post here. They're speedy little buggers.
