Tree Swallow, Sitting Still for a Change!

The energy of the Tree Swallow is amazing to me. They hardly ever sit still, instead they are usually zooming through the air catching bugs to eat. It was great to catch one such beautiful little bundle of energy at rest.

Must be looking out for trouble as this bird is looking out over its shoulder. Hope it wasn't you, Vern!
