A Hide for a Home
Occasionally I manage to get out at dawn to a nature reserve close to Earnewald in the hope of capturing better images from the cover of a bird hide…to my surprise swallows had taken to nesting in the rafters of the hide…
In these images a pair of swallows were busily building a nest, gracefully darting in and out of the narrow windows, while I tried my utmost to stay out of their way… 😉
Lovely photos!

Thanks Sheila! ☺ They are Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica)…last week I checked in on them and they are sitting on eggs, they need to hurry up because they are getting ready for their long journey back to Africa…
