thanks everyone.. you brought me luck on this sweet Sunday Peter. I remember I was zoned in while shooting these., mainly because I was so disapointed with Saturdays shoot.

Nice job, Ray! How'd you get so close to the swallows?! They look great; nice backgrounds and the whites are just right.

thanks guys.. Scott.. these swallows live at a very popular park in Toronto, and are a custom to people and photogs., I think they enjoy the attention!

Freakin' awesome! My fave is 4, but all are very nicely captured!

Heehee, I like how in Photo 5 this little swallow seems to say: "WHAT? I'll punch you in the nose for having taken a photo of me yawning!" It's getting its "fist" up for you already!

Thanks LaFoto.. I was surprised to see that the shutter speed I had there wasn't enough to frezze that foot motion., but it looks ok with a bit of blurr.

Great series Ray, Is #1 a female robin?
I really like #2 looks like it is just lounging around.

 

[Raymond J Barlow]

Thanks Bill,. I don't know if there is a visible difference between a M and F Robin.. Canoncan might know, he is the expert!
