[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The House Martin (Delichon urbicum), sometimes called the Northern House Martin or Common House Martin, is a migratory passerine bird of the swallow family which breeds in Europe, north Africa and temperate Asia; and winters in sub-Saharan Africa and tropical Asia. It feeds on insects which are caught in flight, and it migrates to climates where flying insects are plentiful.

Dear Szabo,
One of the finest inflight shots of a flying bird. It has come out so well, is beyond description. Amazing shot of House Martin. Really award winning photograph. TFS.
Regards-Subhash
