It's such a small swallow, it's more of a gulp :)

Hello, l'il zip! :)
Look at those big dark eyes!

I know! If his parents were about our eyes would be a fair target.
But he will strike terror into the hearts of many insects.

I am amazed he sat on your finger without trying to peck your eyes out. Cute little thing though.

Desertion of the family nest. He's almost ready to move from hight security to something larger.

I haven't seen many photos of birds taken from directly in front. Does the swallow have more forward-facing eyes than most birds, and does his mouth extend wider than his beak? Or do all birds look like that when viewed from that angle?

This bird looks rather different, even considering it's not quite facing the camera directly:

Squeee! Thank you.

I like the side-on picture of him especially - he looks rather less All Mouth.
