Mud Island
Memphis, Shelby Co, TN
 
I've posted a photo of a Cave Swallow seen in the company of another Cave  
and hundreds of Rough-winged Swallows at the mouth of the Wolf River where it  
flows into the Mississippi River, in Shelby Co. This was my second encounter  
with this species but the first bird a few years back, cooperated only by  
letting me photograph it's back. I believe this photo confirms the species. Any 
 
comments on ID are welcomed.
 
Years of scanning evidently paid off. Try:
