Good timing on those shots Ned! I'm sure they didn't make it easy!

Thanks for checking in Mike ! But I got to tell ya, trying for the second one proved more difficult, waiting for the little guy to come out and get him in focus before the fathers left wing masked the shot !

Both shots are pretty fantastic. In flight swallows are quite difficult, and the huge gaping maw of the baby swallow, as parent comes in is just adorable.
