The tree swallow (Tachycineta bicolor) is a migratory passerine bird that breeds in North America and winters in Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean. It is a very rare vagrant to western Europe.
This swallow
averages 13.5 cm (5.3 in) long and weighs about 20 g (0.71 oz). The
bill is tiny. The adult tree swallow has iridescent blue-green
upperparts, white underparts, and a very slightly forked tail. The
female usually has duller colours than the male, often more greenish
than the more bluish male. The juvenile plumage is dull grey-brown above
and may have hint of a grey breast band.
