Swifts again with 5D3

actually the lightweight combination of the Canon 400 5.6 and the Canon 5D3 -- had not intended to spend more time on them today but they were low again and I wanted to test the AF of the 5D3 -- sometimes it works well sometimes it doesn't -- pretty much like all cameras I guess! maybe operator error

a few Swifts

there are up to 2000 Swifts feeding over my local patch at the moment but serious scanning has yet to locate anything with white bits!
