Great shots. I have only gotten shots of these once, and they were a ways off on a wire. These are wonderful.

Nice series Wayne and you have to love how photogenic and accomodating these birds are, Every little change in light reveals another layer of blue it seems.

Very well done. The white are white (not blown which is my problem) and the colors are bright. (Sounds a bit like a laundry detergent ad. :lol:) Anyway, they are excellent images.

liv2trip.....All I can say, is that those are the best shots I've seen of tree swallows. You really did a very nice job with those. The iridescent blue is so spectacular in those little guys.
