The stable swallows have now fledged and begun flight training









They are still just as hard to capture



It's a dogs life, yeah right!

i could but...................
i do not have a flash other than the built in one yet, a speedlight is the next thing on my list of must haves.
i would also worry about the flash causing problems to these youngsters, i wouldn't want to see them crash as they were temporarily blinded

Squibble ... Cool series. You have more patience than I do ... I will not even take the time to shoot swallows in flight ... Too frustrating for me!
