Swallow..........

Next to the house is the BBQ area, a fully roofed and tiled structure that has brick columns at the two front corners, and a built in brick bbq along the back wall. This allows access to the area from the front and both sides. It is probably as high as the house, perhaps even a little higher, it has the extra advantage of not having a ceiling, just the timbers of the framework that supports the roof.
High in this roof cavity is a steel framework supporting a sort of candelarbra, no candles, just low power bulbs, this gives a nice glow as opposed to a glaringly bright light when its switched on.

This chap was whizzing around the garden and flying through the bbq building.

Larger view....

He was simply way to fast to capure whilst in flight, but i did manage this rushed shot of him as he settled for a moment.........

The bbq we have at home is one of those stainless gas powered items, all very convenient, but the food we had from the briquet fired bbq in spain was far tastier, and on the whole a far more relaxed affair.........10/10.
