Vencejos (Swifts) at Iguazu Falls

Swifts are birds that resemble swallows and nest behind waterfalls; they dive headfirst and pass through the curtains of water with pinpoint accuracy. It’s amazing to see them among the waterfalls.

A fascinating photo! The falls have a lot of water, it must have rained upstream. I didn't see any swifts when I visited there and the water was clear, probably it was the wrong season.
HFF and a good weekend!
