Juvenile Swallow

I was regularly birdwatching along a lake Kiareddine north of Tunis city which wasfull of migrants in spring. This juvenile swallow was sitting on a mounf of dead reeds and waiting for food from parents hanging around. I got very close about 2 metres and the bird didn't fly, so I had the time to make this sketch before the bird decided finally to leave. This lake was transformed many times as a drainage and disinfection urban reservoir until it desappeared completly in the early 2003.
