Yesterday I was at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) campus in late afternoon, and many Germain's Swiftlets were coming down to drink and bathe. Here's the final cut from several hundred efforts to capture them in pixels. It was a lot of fun!

12th August 2011: Swiftlets, USM
As I've said before on this blog, give me the chance to photograph swifts or swiftlets in decent lighting conditions, as I'm as happy as Larry, and can easily lose all track of time...and memory cards!

Great shots Dave. I was at Air Itam Dam where there were 40 or so Brown Needletails doing the same thing. Could hardly track them as they were very fast!
ReplyDeletewow!!!! that was amazing.......
ReplyDeleteHi Hor Kee
ReplyDeleteWhat time was that, and where's the best place to position oneself?
Thanks
Great shots Dave.
ReplyDeleteThanks Denis!
ReplyDeletevery nice to see this behaviour on a photo! you must have been in a perfect position to photograph it.
ReplyDeleteAlways a fan of your blog!
I love this kind of thing too... and the results are usually more instructive than paintings in a field guide !
