Seldom: View of common european swift - some minutes before it's first flight. For the rest of it's life it will never touch the ground again, for ths birds even sleep during while flying...
This is the first time I have ever seen a bird from such a close distance!!! Thank you Barbara!
Artist Reply: Hi Hiromi, I am happy that I could show you this bird from a near - it was also the first time in my life, as they usually never ever come down to the ground!!!
