Ottawa Swallows...OHIO (7 May)


Just a quick post of a photo of one of the gorgeous Tree Swallows fluttering behind the visitor center at Ottawa NWR yesterday, (if only I could have got it on a better perch than one of the irwell-placed nest boxes). It still looked incredible in the early morning light as it glowed greenish blue. Sometimes photos make you see the gorgeousness of birds all over again, of a bird that perhaps sometimes you might just have taken for granted once too often. This was one such occasion. I have unashamedly rediscovered the beauty of a tree swallow through the joys of photography!
