They arrived three days ago! And... I can still catch them. It is a challenge every year to see if I am still able to catch them. The older I get the harder it is. Still I measure my heath by it! Nothing wrong with my eyes and reactions so far. But I get tired quicker. Just wish I had a better camera.

The image in the post last week was from last year at the same location.

    You must be pretty fast to catch these birds in flight! Wonderful shots.

    How beautiful! They are so fast...like their name....and it's hard to keep them in your focus! Well done!

    And that you did! I know how difficult it is to photograph these 'swift', high fliers!! Terrific.

    I thank you for taking time to add your link to this post for us all at I'd Rather B Birdin'...much appreciated!
