Tree'd (Petrochelidon nigricans)

Another catch-up picture this one. I'd first seen a Tree Martin on my first day with Peter in Adelaide, but couldn't get a picture.

So here was one, perched at eye level in the canopy of a tree (where else LOL).

Quite handy being at the same height as the tree tops, isn't it. I'd never have seen him otherwise. I'd now got pictures of both the martin species in Australia.
