Air Banum Tree Swift

Lifer, along the RPS Air Banum. Sky was getting dark, with the clouds moving in. After finishing the photo shoot, it rained cats and dogs.

I realise the next day, the other half was nesting on another tree beside. This bird distracted me from finding its mate. Sitting silently the camouflage work very well for them.
