  Haven’t been around here for a while, but have been trying to nab a few Swallows and Sandmartins lately.

  Tricky little things to catch, and they’re so small you have to crop a fair bit, so sharpness isn’t 100%.

  But I’l keep at them!

  Some good attempts there Ray, particularly like the last one with the
  two in the frame, they are extremely quick and really hard to focus on
  so well done.

  Thanks Jenny.

  A few more from today.

  

  

  

  

  

  House Martin, with no breast band?
  

  Plus some Swifts which are harder to get any detail of on the body.
