Diamond in the Rough

September 21, 2014

Today I was driving by a pond when I noticed that there were dozens of swallows flying around the surface and perched in nearby trees. I stopped to get a closer look and discovered that they were Northern Rough-winged Swallows that must have stopped in to refuel on their way south for the winter. I decided to try my luck at getting a photograph or two of them in flight. Such beautiful graceful flyers!
