Resting Barn Swallow

Crosswinds Marsh Wetland Preserve, Michigan

Taking a break from nest building duties.
They were hard at work and didn't seem to mind our presence.

Using the 1.4x teleconverter allowed this little one to fill the frame.

Wonderful capture, I never realised how beautifully coloured these birds were, they are normally moving much too fast!
