House Martin and Nests

This was a fluke shot because the nests were tucked right up underneath the eaves. To get it, I had to contort myself over a washbasin in one of our apartment bathrooms, hold my camera out of the window, point it in the general direction of the nests (because I couldn't see the viewfinder) and snap off several shots. It was pure chance that one of the house martins was returning to the nest as I snapped. I couldn't do much about the colours because the contrasts were very strong but I cropped it and sharpened it just a touch.
