Wire tailed swallow (Hirundo smithii)


Very cute bird with least concern (LC) conservation status in IUCN data!!:-) These birds are solitary in nature. In Marathi language it is known as "तारवाली पाकोळी"!The long wire is not visible in this picture. Got this picture yesterday in the morning; Sunlight was to the left of the object; hence it created nice colors at the back of the bird. This is shot at my favorite place, on the busy bridge of Kawadi!
1/640s, f 4.5, ISO 100.
