Swallows Feeding Fledglings

[WillNicholls]

We have around 50 or 60 swallows nesting in our wood shed and garage now at home, which is just incredible to see.
Every year they return in bigger numbers than previously!

4 of the fledglings lined up on a rusty old gate today and posed for some pictures.

The adults were flying in feeding them, and here is a selection of shots I got. Hope you like them!

Some cracking shots there Will. Especially like the one with the parents head almost fully inside the young ones mouth. Good capture

Nice shots Will, it is good fun watching them feeding the young. Amazes me how far they shove their heads into the youngsters beaks. I think you have caught the action very well.

Couple of my efforts here:

Some of my pics.
