I can still catch them

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.

The ruin of an old church in Björkvik about 25 km from my home is used for open air activities in summer. In summer there are usually some Common swifts nesting in the walls and I love to try to capture them in camera.

Tornseglare / Common Swift at Hagebyberga

  NF Photo 130603

I´ve been out birding today and at this place I found a lot of Common Swifts.  It is a ruin of an medieval church and the Swifts seemed to like it a lot. I had a lot of fun standing there trying to catch them. I did see one flying in under a pan and out again after a while. So there are nests. But of course they are too fast to capture entering them. I love their sound so I was there for a long while. Maybe I should bring some gear and see if I can get a movie.
