Day 111: Cave Swallow

Cave Swallows breed from southern Texas and New Mexico south to Peru, as well as in the Caribbean. They are blue-gray above with a chestnut-colored rump and forehead. They nest in colonies in caves, sea cliffs, and sinkholes, under bridges and on ledges of buildings.






We saw a flock of Cave Swallows on some wire outside of lagoon we visited in southwest Puerto Rico. They seemed to be relaxing and enjoying the breeze.
