    This bird flew around and above the hide for a couple of minutes checking out the swifts and swallows. I couldn't get a decent picture through the hide windows - it was just too fast and usually at too high an angle. In the end I was so frustrated, I opened the hide door to try and get a decent...

    I had been driving around some pools in Lithuania having had a good day. I was on my way out of the reserve when I came across this Juvenile Hobby on some wires. I stopped about 200 yards away, sure that it would take flight, but thankfully the bird stayed put allowing me a few shots of it.

An adult sitting on the highest point, a juvenile barely visible inside the construction. A few minutes later, the group of 4 or 5 hobbies flew to the next pylon, even further...
