      I figure out what type of bird, it is actually a barn swallow. It is quite common around Lake Elkhorn in Maryland. Thank you. I would not have try to identify it if you did not point me to the right direction. Posted 11 years ago

    I am not sure but I took the picture at Lake Elkhorn in Maryland. Can it be the common swift (Apus apus)? I think I took a close up picture of the bird that can help with identification. Let me locate it and download it. Thank you. Posted 11 years ago
