Missed - Swallow Feeding Sequence 4 of 5

The recently fledged 2nd Brood of Swallows at the Black Hole Marsh provided a perfect opportunity to photograph the adults feeding the juveniles. To the eye it all looks fine, the camera can highlight when things do not go to plan. As this sequence shows the adult does not always get it right. In the final image, the adult is coming around for a second attempt.

 

I used a Canon 5D for these images and the speed of the High Speed Continuous mode wasn't fast enough to capture more of the sequence. In particular the gap between images 2 and 3.
