Swallow Summer

Swallow Summer

Robert E Fuller

During my exhibition a lot of visitors said they had seen less swallows this year nesting in their buildings.
I photographed these newly fledged chicks being fed by their parents this week.


They swooped down and fed the chicks on the wing. They are such graceful birds and it is a real shame that there are less this year.


I happened to spot them whilst I was out checking over a bee hive that I have on an organic field of spring sown oil seed rape - it just goes to show that is is always good to have my camera with me!
