Barn Swallow

Out at the lake yesterday swallows were zipping around all over. I tried to get photos of them flying around but just wasn't quick enough. I did manage to get some in the frame but terribly.
out of focus. A barn swallow (Hirundo rustica) finally landed on this powerline long enough for me to snap this picture.

I don't post all of the photos that I post here to my Pixels gallery, but I post the photos I like best. Some don't make the cut. I most likely will not post this one to the gallery. I usually wait a couple of days to see how I feel about it then.

"The Barn Swallow is the most abundant and widely distributed swallow species in the world. It breeds throughout the Northern Hemisphere and winters in much of the Southern Hemisphere." - allaboutbirds.org
