Description
Photograph of a flock of barn swallows sitting on a telephone line with one bird flying in to join the club. a bright blue summer sky behind them. These birds are the most widespread species of swallow in the world, ranging over 251 million square miles around the world. This photograph was taken close to the beach and estuary where the swallows are constantly doing fly-bys, diving and skimming the ocean for tasty bug treats. It’s a joy to watch them. Then they will congregate on the shore and chatter away. In this photo (taken as I walked home from the beach), the middle two birds were chattering away non-stop to each other while I photographed them. It reminded me of an old married couple with their extended family.
Day 3 - "Barn Swallows Online - Join the Club" is my entry on day three of Fine Art America's six-day challenge to create an image a day with the theme of the color blue.

Good one! My grandparents had a party line when I was very young. It fascinated me!
