Swallows Swooping


Was going to call this post 'Misty Morning', as an early start brought stunning views of a temperature inversion with the emerging sunrise as a backdrop . . .



But then the swallows made their morning appearance, all lined up on the telephone wire, and I finally got some video that almost captures them doing their thing . . .




Wikipedia lists the collective term for swallows as either 'a flight' or 'a gulp'(?!) - I think 'a swoop of swallows' is much more evocative!
