A swallow perches atop a rusty gate. It is drab brown with an off white breast and bellow. The bird is perched facing left, looking right. Its long brown wings extend beyond its tail.
Summer birds are arriving. Here is my first of season Northern Rough-winged Swallow doing my favorite swallow thing: sitting. #northernroughwingedswallow #bird #birdphotography #birdsofrhodeisland #littlecompton

Bird with brown feathers flies low over a lake, wings spread wide.
I love to frustrate myself by trying to photograph swallows and martins. But some days it pays off.

A portrait of a Northern Rough-winged Swallow on a robin’s egg blue background. Its head is medium brown and its wings are deep brown. Its chest is light brown and has some of its feathers ruffled up as if caught by the wind. Its belly is pale brown to white. Its eye is large and black. It has a short pointed light brown beak. It is outlined with sketchy white lines.

An overall brown bird with feathers blown in every which way by the wind, stands on a thin tree branch. His body is facing forward, but he is looking back towards us.
Living up to its name: #NorthernRoughWingedSwallow.

There were 3 Northern Rough-winged Swallows in Sylvan Water in Green-Wood Cemetery yesterday. It was windy & not much light so not a good day for birding or pictures. #northernroughwingedswallow #swallows #birds #birdwatching #wildlife

A Northern rough-winged swallow - small brown bird with a light-colored underbelly, perched atop some reeds in such a way that it may appear at first glance that the bird has stork-like long legs. The water below is mildly rough, alternating between reflecting blue sky and brown from the lake shoreline.
Got caught up in trying out some new equipment and a recent addition to my software and almost missed how amusing this photo of a Northern rough-winged swallow is.

A juvenile brown-backed sparrow perches on a painted, heavily textured railing, turns toward the distant camera and opens a wide yellow gape to call for food. Adjacent, an unfocused sibling ignores it.
