While I was at the pond today there were quite a few pairs of Tree Swallows there and when they came to perch , they allowed to approach to about 10 feet away , The RWB just happened to land close enough to me for a couple of shots ,hope you all enjoy C & C welcome

Fantastic shots . The pose and composition of the first is a real standout for me.

Great set Wayne. All of them are fantastic, The first shot has a great pose with the feather pattern working quite nicely with that perfect turn of the head. Well done!!
