    Eat and Fly

    Not only do barn swallows catch their meals on the fly, they also feed their young on the wing.

    This hand-off happens so fast that even with 6.5 fps, I can't capture the adult in two consecutive images at close range. Neat how the dad has his one close foot tucked in to keep from striking the baby - I'm assuming.


    Bad image quality but I thought I'd share it
