Photobucket is holding all my photos that I stored on their site from 2007-2015 hostage replacing them with ugly grey and black boxes and asking for a large ransom to retrieve them. It is a slow process to go through all my posts deleting the ugly boxes.

What a sweet little guy he is. If he’s a he, not a she.
Oh, it is such a pretty little bird. Really pretty pictures. I love looking at pictures of birds.

We have swallows here but they are dull gray and brown. This guy is a sweetie.
AWWW, he is so pretty. Great photos. laurie
he’s beautiful Ellen B.
Of course, it your’re this pretty you deserve 3 or more poses–although I think you both got it right the first time 🙂
I’m surprise you didn’t ask the little bird to spread the feathers and lift one leg. . .terribly cute.
very patient with the silly lady and her camera!!
What a cute photo. It’s like you were giving him instructions. Lol
Amazing! Great shots and post.

Birds are my all time favorite animals after…cats and I especially love swallows. My mother had a weddingdress with swallows woven in to the fabric. Your pictures are perfect and what a coincidence I have a collection of birdcages on my blog today. Thanks for sharing your beautiful pictures.
What a pretty little bird! We have tree swallows that nest in our backyard. While there are babies, they rule the whole area We can’t even walk near the birdhouse without being dive-bombed! But we love them!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful photos!

So cute!
What a pretty bird. He looks like he has quite an attitude – I love it!
Last summer around this time I stayed in a log home in the country and took a picture of a bird similar to yours here, and was told that it was a tree swallow. Your post here brought me back to my archive, July 3, 2008, and the beautiful scenery I took in last summer. Thanks!
