Tree Swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) is a medium-sized swallow, with gleaming white underparts. Adult males are bright iridescent blue-green above; females and immatures are duller brownish with limited or no iridescence (in the picture). Always note compact shape, fairly broad wings, and slightly notched tail. Occurs in a variety of open habitats including grassy fields, lakes, and marshes.
For some reason, the Tree Swallows didn't really nest in my yard this summer. I have two boxes in the yard. They built a nest in one of them, but not the other. Then, instead of actually nesting, two "families" of Tree Swallows would guard each box, chasing off Bluebirds and House Sparrows, as well as the occasional Blue Jay or Mockingbird. So this summer, I was only able to get two photos of them.
Thanks for Viewing.
" One Swallow does not make a summer... but it can make your morning when you get one half decent shot of these gorgeous birds ! :-)) "
Little Swallow sitting on a post by a stream in Malltraeth, taking a well earned rest from life on the wing.
After chasing various swallows in numerous outings, I found that barn swallows appeared to be the most playful one. Dipping into water and then swooping in air signature their energy in nature. This shot is a fleeting glimpse of a barn swallow in high speed action.

Right when you enter the San Francisco Bay trail in Sunnyvale there are some wires where hundreds of Barn Swallows hang out. This makes for an easy photo opportunity, and we were excited to get this picture. You can find the adaptable Barn Swallow feeding in open habitats from fields, parks, and roadway edges to marshes, meadows, ponds, and coastal waters.
The swallows here are not usually so obliging in where they perch! This is another brood of swallows. These parents work tirelessly sweeping up and down the hedge and rarely stopping for a rest.

I stopped at Marsh Creek to try and photograph some warbler. The warblers were uncooperative so I spent some time having fun with swallows
