Blue-and-white Swallow (Pygochelidon cyanoleuca) - 11Aug2024

The Blue-and-white Swallow is a migratory swallow in Central and South America that has a massive range basically covering the whole of South America up to Nicaragua.  We were seeing them often on my last trip to Colombia but it was not until we found some that were sitting on wires that I was able to get some pictures. Actually they came in close because one of their young had fallen out of the nest in the rafters of a barn and the parents were watching closely.   The first photo is the chick and the second the parent.
