Default Last swallows

On a wonderful late summer's evening, there are still lots of swallows
around here!

Went for an evening's walk along the coast at Whitburn Bay (near Sunderland,
Tyne & Wear) and there were loads of them swooping around across the flat
calm North Sea.

Maybe they had stopped for a break, en-route from Aberdeen to South Africa!
