This 3 1/2 min film is the documentation of five baby Barn Swallows, their rapid growth, and departure from their nest. They certainly kept their beautiful parents busy trying to feed them all. There are many Barn Swallow nests all over our area in southern New Mexico, under the eaves of coffee shops, barns, carports, schools. This is our carport which seems to work well for them, protected from other animals, under cover, aerated, yet accessible. This is shot with a Canon 5DII using mostly a 70-200 mm lens.
