Swift; Apus apus

I've been trying to capture my ultimate summer feeling on photo: Groups of Swifts flying fast and loud just above the rooftops on a warm and sunny summer evening. I know I'm not completely satisfied yet, but at least I have something I can show you already. The problem with these shots are: we don't have enough nice summer evenings and those large groups ain't breeding birds, so they can show up almost anywhere....
