Observation details
One bird seen flying and catching insects in the air with a huge flock of red-rumped swallows and little swifts. Some barn swallows were also there. Incidentally it has been sighted by us at Purulia's murguma dam side some days back and that was the first record from West Bengal. Possibly an overlooked species as it's really challenging to find out one in a big flying flocks of other swallows.
