The Swallows have arrived in droves to Canoa Lake

Today I went to Canoa Ranch lake in was very excited to see a huge number of Swallows swooping and diving all around. Most of them are violet-green and tree swallows.
I am guessing well over 100 Swallows. They would swoop over the water and then land on the ground (on the road, paths , rocks etc) and look exhausted.

It was a very enjoyable day today. The colors really shine in the downloads.

hope you enjoy these.

Excellent set, getting a shot in flight is HARD, they can't fly straight

That must be great to have active Swallow nests to watch.

I really enjoyed seeing those SwLliws yesterday.

Take care.
