This was taken in August, and it was standing on a car aerial.

  3. That is a stunning capture Bob... I can't believe you haven't shared it before.
    re: the Great Tits in my garden I see three every day... five Blue Tits and a couple of Coal Tits also come to my feeders.
    Loads of House Sparrows as well but I witnessed a Sparrowhawk catching one today... not bad for a tiny garden.

  7. Beautiful photo of the barn swallow. We had them nest in our barn this year . I got photos of the babies but could never get an adult swallow to sit still long enough to photo. Enjoyed seeing this lovely shot.

  19. Una bella fotografía de golondrina con un encuadre perfecto y equilibrado y la dificultad añadida de que es un ave que difícilmente puede ser capturado estático pues generalmente siempre está en vuelo. Un abrazo,

  21. Jaskółki u nas nie mają dodatku brązowego koloru. Śliczne ptaki. Pozdrawiam.
    Swallows we do not have the add-brown color. Beautiful birds. Yours.
