The Black-collared Swallow is a localized swallow found in southeastern South America. It is characterized by its glossy blue-black upperparts and a distinct black collar across its white breast.
Where to spot
Open woodlands, savannas, and grasslands, often near water, in southeastern Brazil, Paraguay, and northeastern Argentina.
How to spot
Look for the clear black collar across its otherwise white breast, which is a diagnostic feature. Observe its typical swallow flight over open areas.
When to spot
Year-round resident in much of its range. Active during daylight hours.

This species is known to nest in tree holes, old woodpecker cavities, or even artificial structures like fence posts, a behavior that sometimes brings it closer to human observation.
