Barn Swallows Resting on Wires
This bird rests on a wire, viewed from the side to display its long wings and distinctive forked tail. Swallows frequently pause on elevated cables in open fields and countryside settings.
Aerial Acrobats of the Countryside
Swallows spend most of their waking hours in flight, catching small flying insects directly out of the air. During late summer, large groups gather along wires before beginning long migratory journeys to warmer winter regions.
