Description
The Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) is the most widespread species of swallow in the world. It is a distinctive passerine bird with blue upperparts, a long, deeply forked tail and curved, pointed wings. It is found in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. In Anglophone Europe it is just called the Swallow; in Northern Europe it is the only common species called a "swallow" rather than a "martin".

Elle est également connue sous le nom d'Hirondelle de cheminée ou d'Hirondelle des granges. Elle se distingue par sa longue queue fourchue et sa gorge couleur rouge brique (ici c'esu un juvénile).

Me encanta la profundidad de campo, el color y la nitidez. beautiful shot.
Outstanding image
I guess we have different races of the same bird. Our Barn Swallow (also Hirundo rustica) has a much darker rust-colored breast and a noticably smaller beak. Upon closer inspection, your bird is quite unlike any of our swallows. I didn't mean to suggest you had misidentified your last upload! On a related topic, have you had any success photographing swallows in flight? I have found them to be almost impossible to follow in the air, so I've not had much luck at it.
OUTSTANDING
