Observation details
Large female type bird flying NW into the wind at dawn. Reasonably high and away from the line taken by other passerines. Powerful flyer, but still slow going into the wind. ID clear by size alone, but also noted relatively large bill for a swallow, large broad wings, forked tail. Some dark markings on head and otherwise white below, but color pattern not very easy to see in dawn light. I have photos if necessary, but won't be able to add them for 1-2 weeks
