Flying Swifts

Following on from my last post, I spent a bit of time making the most of some low flying Swifts. Although fast, they have a reasonably predictive flight path, making them a little easier to photograph compared to the Swallows and Martins which are more erratic. Still a challenge though and there are always plenty of blurred images to delete.

Kings of the Air

I never really go out with the intention of specifically photographing Swallows, Martins and Swifts in flight, they just usually happen to be around where I am concentrating on other species and a few chance shots are taken. This week has been good for encountering them and I have managed a few reasonable images. It has got me thinking that I really need to dedicate some proper sessions to them. Here are a few from this week.

A Bit Busy

I've not been able to update the blog for a while, the reason being that I have been busy editing images for a project that a company are working on. I have just about finished, for now. So to get back into the swing, here is a quick post of some Goosander shots, taken back in February.
