A blurry pic of a Sand Martin. They were so fast it was hard enough to track then crop a decent picture. So this will have to do for ID.
Blurry but what the heck. #SandMartin going "weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee"

A poster for protecting Sand martins
I drew this after hearing that a sand martin colony was destroyed today.
Many chicks are almost grown up but never got the chance to fly again😢

The species shown is a Sand Martin (Riparia riparia). This photograph captures a Sand Martin in mid-flight with its wings held high, a beautiful natural stone wall, and vibrant green vegetation. #SandMartin #birds #lukehaigh #photography #canon #photo

Capturing Sand Martins isn’t easy, but after around 456,000 shots, I got one 😆

I'm glad to see so many Gannets again. They seem to have returned from the bird flue

An der Steilküste in Neustein an der Kieler Förde / Ostsee brütet jedes Jahr eine ziemliche große Kolonie von Uferschwalben! Ich sitze dort gerne auf einem großen Stein und beobachte ihr quirliges Treiben … so wie hier heute Vormittag!
#uferschwalben #sandmartin #ostsee
And now the #sandmartins!
That's all four UK #hirundines on the #painting, which I hope will clearly show the differences between these delightful #birds.

3 Sand Martin chicks in a drainage hole of a stone wall
These guys normally nest in large sandy banks, but here in Newcastle, we have a colony in an old stone wall!

Sandmartins busily fly in and out of their tunnel nests in the soft cliff sand. The colony is healthy and vibrant

Things just keep getting better at our @stwater Dennis Leonard Sand Martin bank in Minworth!🪺
Another 14 chicks ringed, which brings us to 21 in total, and new nests are popping up as we speak. The future is looking bright for these birds at their new home!💚 #sandmartin

Walked the new cycle path from Nantgaredig to Whitemill today & found common sandpiper, two broods of goosander, grey wagtail & sand martins by the hundreds but boy was that wind strong #commonsandpiper #goosander #sandmartin #greywagtail #CarmsBirds #BirdingWales
A Sand Martin in mid-flight, approaching a vertical dirt cliff where it nests, with wings raised and claws extended for landing. 垂直の土の崖にある巣に向かって飛んでいるショウドウツバメ。翼を上げ、着地のために足を伸ばしている瞬間。
I’m really bad at photographing birds in flight, so this shot of a Sand Martin took a lot of effort.🪶🤔
撮影しながら「これどうやって撮ったら良いんだ？」って声が出ちゃいました😅

Sand Martins are the smallest UK hirundines and very agile fliers over water.
