If you remember ( https://www.greggard.com/blog/2021/9/tree-swallow-juvenile-jamaica-bay-ny ) I has so much fun photographing these swallows on one of my visits to the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge last Summer. The action that day was incredible and photographing these birds at 30fps I was able to get many positions of them flying, catching insects etc. More coming soon :)
