White-breasted Woodswallow
Artamus leucoryn
The White-breasted Woodswallow inhabits open forests, woodland, savanna, mangroves, and areas near water across parts of Australasia. It catches flying insects in swift aerial pursuits and also takes prey from the ground or vegetation. Adults often perch conspicuously on exposed branches before launching into the air. Despite its name, it is not a true swallow and belongs to the woodswallow family.
