here is a view people very rarely see of my favourite bird. normally they are wheeling around from house height to tiny specs in the sky. they eat, drink and sleep on the wing, gather nesting material and mate on the wing, fly 100s of miles a day, arriving in this country late but leave early spending only 2 months here rearing a maximum of only 2 or 3 chicks a year, the chicks fly non stop for up to 5 years before they go nest hunting and eventually land to sit on eggs

and what am I talking about?
