Media notes
I discovered it by the windmill; I looked up at the hirundines overhead, pretty sure I was alerted at first by the (to me) unfamiliar flight call, and I immediately thought ‘that hirundine has a really long tail!’. I quickly took a few snaps with my bridge camera and followed it for a minute or two as it and the hirundines circled the windmill. Eventually it was lost behind trees as it dived low, not sure of which direction it went.
