Swallow Feeding

[Scott Frye]

Northern Rough-winged Swallow at Veterans Oasis Park (Chandler, Arizona)

The adult will often feed the young ones on the fly without perching for the food exchange. The food is a bug and not a regurgitated lunch.

Very well timed to capture both beaks together whilst feeding. I like the addition of the clouds, and would maybe take a bit off the top.

super timing and comp to fit this in! whites on the clouds look a bit hot? love the diagonal line of the perch.

Good catch, good details ! I think it would've been better if you could shoot them from about 45 degree to your right...I mean, if that was possible :D

The clouds do look hot. And for some reason the halos are showing around the birds and the perches.

Thanks for sharing!

Good timing and nice sharpness and DOF. I do see some halos, and I would crop a sliver off the top.
