I was at Vogel State Park, North Georgia on Friday. There were a lot of North Rough-wing Swallows there and also Barn Swallows flying all over the place. Man, they are quick!

My husband and I sat in one place and watched them dive down to skim the water and even though I had my binocs on them, could not tell what they were picking up. We figured they were catching the bugs as they, too, landed on the water. It was entertaining, to say the least.

Too many to begin a count and too fast to keep up with.
