This recent Barn Swallow photo just might be my personal favorite of the species I’ve ever taken. It took me a while to come to that conclusion but the more I study it the more I like it.
Adult Barn Swallows stuff insects so far down the throats of their youngsters that it can almost look like the young birds are trying to swallow the head of their parent.
