Bang on indeed.

Thank you for your comments Sheri Rypstra and vachon! I love when I get this lucky too because it so happens so seldom :)

Talk about luck! Swallows are so difficult to catch. Beautiful colour too.

Wonderful exposure and photo op!! I love it when that happens!!

Thank you Sticks! This was certainly one of those rare photo ops for me. I don't usually get that lucky.

Description
While I stood clicking away at Trumpeter Swans and American Coots I was oblivious to the fact that the perfect photo op was perched right beside me only a few feet away. He was guarding the nest directly behind me.
