    1. It was fun, right before I took their photo I came across a beaver or nutria, I'm leaning more towards beaver. It was swimming so hard to tell. I'll post pic in a bit. Posted 11 years ago

The American Cliff Swallow is a member of the passerine bird family Hirundinidae — the swallows and martins. It breeds in North America and is migratory, wintering in western South America from Venezuela southwards to northeast Argentina. This species is a very rare vagrant to western Europe.
