| | The flight pattern is midway between cliff and barn swallows, displaying a moderately forked tail and rather broad wings that appear dark, in contrast to the belly. | | | Unlike cliff swallows, which have very specific requirements for their colonies, barn swallows are comfortable against almost any wall or in almost any open building. | | | The color of the barn swallow is very like that of the cliff swallow, but barn swallows have longer, narrower and more pointed wings and distinctive forked tails. |

| | FS-798 - The Barn Swallow: Friend of the Farm |
| | Barn Swallows are often seen flying around livestock, where they eat flies that are attracted to the animals. | | | A plan for a Barn Swallow shelf that may be attached to the inside or outside of a building is included in this fact sheet and is probably the simplest of birdhouses to construct. | | | Barn Swallows are one of the most acrobatic of birds- not only do they put on a good show, but they eat insects almost constantly. |
