Yes, I know.

I thought they must be swallows at first, but the wings were too long and the tails too short, though heavily forked.

They don't normally hunt insects so low over water, but I guess they were on their way North on migration, and had stopped to feed. We've had huge hatches of insects in the last few days, and they were feasting.
