These are some of my favorite birds. Their flight patterns are so fun to watch. They seem so happy flying around being birds.

I saw them hunting bugs today after heavy rain and it made me so happy because they looked so cheerful and happy while being extremely stylish.

I wonder if lara/ciri are called swallow because this bird flies really fast and it's similar to their teleporting skills or something.

They're European Swallows. A one ounce bird can't carry a 1 pound coconut.

birds are innocent and the most innocent bird on earth is swallow. God choose her to save his home by elephants troop of abrahaa just to show people that i can kill Big enemies by my little force. Oh my God. i love this bird. my childhood morning and evening has been passed by their crispy sounds . they were in hundreds on the top floor ceiling of woods were their nest they use to go at early morning when dawn shows its first light. and they use to come back at exect sunset .when sun falls on horizon and its light dies slowly.

Nice footage but nobody, and I mean NOBODY can do David Attenboroughs job as well as the legend himself.

Thought this video would be great, but the guy didn’t tell us a thing or next to nothing anyway. If you’re interested, and how great they fly get out your riding lawnmower, and watch them take down all the months that fly out of the grass. Absolutely amazing.
