Hirundo Rustica, Proper Name

Passerine Songbirds, Now See Them Fly

Hear Their Song, Summer Is Here Agin

πŸŒ…πŸ•ŠοΈπŸŒ…

So Perfectly Shaped, Beautiful Birds

When You Try And Describe Their Beauty

Though You May Try, You Can Find No Words

Watch Them Sweep Through The Air As They Fly

To See The Swallows' Beautiful Form

Will Raise You Spirits And Make You Smile

Darting Up And Down Through Sun And Storm

Flying Through Our Skies, Mile After Mile

See The Swallows Flying In The Sky

Watch Them Sweep Through The Air As They Fly

    Wonderful sonnet, Mike. As always.

    Excellent sonnet, Mike, and a fine subject. Swallows are fairly prolific here, and the Barn Swallows, in particular, are strikingly colorful. There's a river bridge not too far from town that shelters hundreds of nests. It's one of my favorite photo shoot trips, but I need a better birding lens.
