Cliff Swallow

 

Cliff Swallows make their mud nests under horizontal overhangs and usually nest in colonies.

Sometimes a Cliff Swallow will lay eggs in another swallow’s nest.

The oldest recorded Cliff Swallow was a male that was at least 11 years 10 months old when he was recaptured in California in 2004. Originally banded in Nebraska in 1993.
