Description
These days we have a bunch of swallows flying around the house and it's fun watching them. Yesterday I heard a chirp and found a little visitor on my balcony. He didn't move when I got closer with my camera but he often turned his head to see what I was doing.
Taken with a Minolta Dimage A1
No Postwork was done on the shot.
Used Corel Photo Paint for framing.
Thank you for viewing and commenting!
It means a lot to me!

Hibiscus...for Kim
You've made my day!

Tried this shot with a robin two days ago,,,didn't work.:( Guess robins' arn't as trusting as swallows. Excellent focus. Beautiful shot.

Great close up and an excellent eye for photography!!
Splendid!!! Wonderful bird, great composition and capture!
Well done!
Sure looks supsecious. ;) but you are lucky to have gone as close. I am not good with birds at all. :~)
What a great photo, Monika! I always like these birds; they make such funny noises. There's a saying here in Holland: "One swallow doesn't make summer yet". Well: we've had more than one swallow and there's a real summer going on here (and I guess at your place too). Mhak, Tjeerd
Wow, awesome shot, though placing the bird more in the left part of the shot could improve it I think.
Wonderful shot. Ich glaube, Du hast dem kleinen Vogel schon den Kopf verdreht ;-) Jg

Hast Du ihn gedopt das er so ruhig da sitzt? ;) Der ist ja zum knuddeln. Einmalig!
