Swallows Nesting

Barn swallows (ツバメ, 燕) repairing an old nest that was last used in 2014. I shot the stills and video handheld in a stairwell with an Olympus MD-D EM-5 Mk. II camera and a 40-150mm f2.8 Pro lens. Strong morning sunlight backlit the scene, so I used small LED lights to bring out the colors of the birds.
