Just returned from a weeks trip to the Isle of Mull....It was a total washoot....Mostly heavy rain and high winds everyday....My trip to Lunga Island for the Puffins was cancelled due to the severe weather .. Anyway, I spent the days driving around the island and came across a few Barn Swallows nesting in a nearby old shack....some were perching, and preening ....I managed to get in a good position using the vehicle as a hide, and resting on the beanbag......After approx 2 hours... this one showed the stretched tail for the first time......The pose I was waiting for...ACR, Topaz DN and PS.
