This video was done last week, I used the Nikon D300s and a 200-400 lens and external mic.

Excellent! I love the way you showed the entire process from start to finish. This must be a treat to see and photograph. It's amazing how they work so well together.

Thanks Denise, they do fight a little and steal each others mud. I've photoed them for 3 years and they are at the same spot at the same time every year. The rancher is thinking about allowing photo tours of the ranch in the future. Rod

Great video, this is about the slowest I have ever seen a swallow move. Great editing and neat to show how they build the nest. Found it fascinating.
