Common Swift [tornseglare]

The swifts make a very special whooshing sound as they fly by (just like Douglas Adams' deadlines), but they are almost impossible to catch on film (or, in this case, a digital sensor). Come to think of it, I'm not sure the first one is a swift – it looks like a spacecraft from Star Wars, doesn't it? Älje-Porsen nature reserve, Uddevalla, on June 19, 2015.
