Observation details

***MEGA| MJI "departed" and Matt Garvey and I worked our way back towards the cars; I spotted this bird, a large swallow brown dorsally with an obvious chest band; immediate impression was Brown-chested Martin; I lost sight of the bird and we started moving towards River Street when MJI called, who had also been looking at the bird and seen it very well! BROWN-CHESTED MARTIN!; seen well over the next hour and a half (with an absence of 15+ minutes); lots of photographs taken; Not seen from 1105am until 4pm when relocated in same area; watched for 45+ minutes and even sighted perched in top of large bare deciduous tree on left side of main entry road (on way in from River Street); when last seen it had drifted to the east passed the model airplane field and towards the far tree line;
