In praise of .....(Asian) Red-rumped Swallows (Cecropsis daurica)

I strolled out to a fishpond area near HK's northernmost boundary a couple of evenings ago and found a whole host of hirundines whirling about.

Among them a species I've photographed before, but I make no apology for posting more photos here....

  1. What a great series of images, John. I always think that flight shots in general are the most difficult to obtain, but swallows ratchet up the difficulty exponentially. Well done!
