Tree Swallow, Kennebunk Bridle Path, Kennebunk ME

There was a newly fledged Tree Swallow (or two in a few cases) on the top of every old post along the Kennebunk Bridle Path near the new bridge on the ocean side of Route 9. There were a few adults around, tending to them. This adult was having a nice wing stretch. You can never plan for these shots…but if you have the camera to your eye at the right second, sometimes they happen 🙂 That is an impressively large wing when stretched like that in proportion to the bird!
