I noticed some swallows flying to the roof of Angie's tackroom/storeroom and decided to see what they were doing. Right up in the peak there was a small opening and the swallows had built a nest there. They were flying in and out as they brought back insects they caught in flight to feed to their babies. I assumed they were the blue tree swallows until I got a shot of one from the back, which revealed the beautiful green and violet colors. I believe they were the first Violet-green swallows I have seen. Boy, are they difficult to photograph! They don't stay still very long and the way they dart around in the air makes it hard to get a shot. I will keep trying. :)
