Glenn, When you say Somerset are you talking Somerset Dam where I would not
expect Barn Swallows or are you talking Somerset on Cape York where you
might see barn Swallows or indeed other Swallows?

Hi Birders,
While passing through the town of Somerset, Qld I spotted a group of Welcome
Swallows sitting on the powerlines near the camping grounds. I decided to
stop and have a look at some that appeared different.
Several of the swallows had stark white breasts and bellies instead of the
usual grey, there was no black bar across chest as would be expected in Barn
Swallows but the underparts where clearly different from the other swallows
sitting with them. Their fork tails clearly extended past the wings. I
managed a few reasonable photos for anyone who would be interested in seeing
them.
If you have any ideas I would be very interested to hear your thoughts.
cheers
Glenn McRae
Stanthorpe, Qld
