Barn Swallow in flight

Richards Trail

These Barn Swallows were literally having a field day. So I took about a gazillion shots and ended up with four having some detail. This was the best but not too good.
So I'm issuing a challenge for any Swallow in flight.
Try to shoot these feathered missiles while doing their high speed turns and insane aerial acrobatics, it make for quite the challenge.
Hint... I found that manual settings worked best for me, the less your camera has to do the better the results and keep the light behind you. If you find a better way to do it let me know.
Have fun.

Impressive considering the degree of difficulty to capture. Thanks for the tips.
