Great photos Con.  I find swallows one of the most difficult to photograph as they move so quickly and never in a straight line!

Nice.

Hi
Further to the report about the Fairy Martin tucking its legs behind its feathers during flight, John Leonard reported Welcome Swallows tucking their legs behind their feathers during flight. Attached to this post is an image showing a Welcome Swallow with legs tucked away. The following post has an image of a Welcome Swallow which has just landed and which has its legs fully extended.
regards
