Title: Tree Swallows
Post by: Chris Calohan on June 18, 2017, 07:28:53 am

Tree Swallows in NW Florida in the winter months are quite common, but a nesting pair in the summer months is all but unheard of.

Hope the fires are missing you, Paulo. Definitely a horrible tragedy.

Great shots! May I ask what focal length lens was used to photograph the series?

Thanks,

Don Bryant

I was shooting a Nikon D500 coupled to the Nikon 200-500. These were all shot at f/5.6 1/1250 at 500mm
