Thanks muchly Bill, I'm surprised they arrive with you so late in the year, they've been around the UK from early in October and plenty of them too this year.

Pippan Cream of the Crop More info | Nov 09, 2023 21:03 | #12756 Yes, Welcome Swallows and Pacific Swallows look very similar, and evidently some taxonomists lump them both as the same species. And I agree that the blue chest band on yours identifies it as a Barn Swallow. Still waiting for the wisdom they promised would be worth getting old for.
