It's still a Swift in flight ;) (Apus apus)

I know it's not great, but it's the first I've got with an eye showing. I usually just get bits of these, or even more blurred than this. Actually, I more often end up with shots of clear sky ;)

Anyway; not easy these, especially with a Superzoom camera

You have done well to get one in the frame Chris, all I have done is shoot clear sky when trying to get a shot of a Swift, many tfs.
