A welcome swallow landed right next to me yesterday. They’re usually very skittish and aloof but this one landed on a post about 3 metres from me and stared at me. When I’d had a good look and a little chat, it flew back up to its hiding spot. Not scared or anything, just like “well, I got stuff to do now, human. Catch ya”. Very cool little moment.

Aussie by any chance?
Swallows, swifts, and martins are awesome.
