These Swallows are living in our farm. Chick was perching and waiting for feed by mom.
I liked to watch them rather then shooting.

1/5000
f/5.6
ISO 640
EV +0.3

Thanks for looking, C&C.

A really good action shot. I think you may not have had enough DOF to get parts of the adult in good focus. Since you caught this at 1/5000, I would think a focal opening of around 6.3 or 7.1 would have gotten you sharp on both birds. I also think you could back off the saturation somewhat.
