Observation details
With group of BASWs and PUMAs. 29.975487,-81.989737. Below is information from John Groskopf explaining how this isn't a Bank Swallow. Hi, Jeffrey, I apologize for not providing more detail initially. Bank Swallow should show a clear breast band, unbroken as in this bird, visible in the chest shot. Young Tree Swallow do not show the blueish hue as adults do, and will appear almost dark brown or black. I would expect a bank to be a lighter brown, even in lighting such as in these photos. In the first shot, zooming in, you can make out the darker black face "mask" that found in Tree Swallow at all ages, but notably in young birds.
