Birds

An inquisitive swallow stops to take a closer look at me as I crouched by a dry stone wall and tried (unsuccessfully) to get a shot of a swallow on the wing. There must have been over forty birds feasting on flying ants, but they were just too fast for me to track. After a while. however, they got used to my presence and this was just one of a number who landed on the fence to take a peek at me.
