Give Me My Pole

When I arrived at Garbry Big Woods Sanctuary one day this week I saw nature at work. There was a red-winged blackbird perched on this pole. Just above him this Tree Swallow was hovering. I could not hear what was happening, but I am sure there was some squawking. The red-winged flew away and the swallow took his place. It was cool.

There is more color to this Tree Swallow than I was able to capture in this photo. They are beautiful and so fun to watch fly. They dart around over ponds and rivers while feasting on insects.

Swallow

I do not get many opprotunities to photograph a Tree Swallow. They are great flyers .. and fast. This one was just waiting for me to take a photo.
