Bank Swallows seen along the Bow River in Fish Creek Provincial Park in Calgary on May 25. Although I've likely seen these guys mixed in with different swallows over the years, this is the first time I've managed to get a shot to ID them, making this a new bird to add to my list.

Picked up a brand new Nikon D500 so I had to get out this morning to give it a test drive. Went down to Weaselhead in SW Calgary to see what I could find. I think I'm going to like this camera.

Bank Swallow, first sighting this year.
