Swallow Inspecting Birdhouse
These birds didn't really seem to mind the birders close by - the bird was inspecting a nest box and spent quite a bit of time coming half into the hole.

Tree Swallows Mating
I have photos of these two birds actually doing the act - this seems a bit more romantic. I can just imagine what she is saying. Surprisingly, this shot is handheld at 800mm.

I was surprised how willing these birds were to just sit here and hang out. There was a bit of chasing females, but basically everyone was just hanging out.
