Why it matters
The white-banded swallow (Atticora fasciata) is distinguished by the striking white breast band that contrasts against its otherwise dark, iridescent plumage. These birds are prized by observers for their acrobatic flight, facilitated by their characteristic pointed wings and deeply forked tails as they hunt insects over the rivers of South America.
