It was a beautiful day here in Philadelphia - the temperature got to 77º - but it was very windy. I took a long walk through John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge - the migratory birds haven't yet arrived. There were many swallows, three Osprey fishing, and a few others. I'll post the Osprey tomorrow (I haven't processed them yet). The Tree Swallows provided the main entertainment.

Amazingly sharp for these erratically moving, tough to shoot beauties.

I was shooting at 1/5000 sec on a monopod. The wind was fierce which made it more challenging. Thanks, Ray.

Thanks, Max. The Osprey were in harsh lighting so I'll need to do some extra work in post.

A fine set, Elliott. I have yet to capture a decent swallow image.
