White-rumped Swift

The White-rumped Swift (Apus caffer) is a small swift. Although this bird is superficially similar to a House Martin, it is completely unrelated to that passerine species. The resemblances between the swallows and swifts are due to convergent evolution reflecting similar life styles. White-rumped Swifts breed in much of sub-Saharan Africa, and have expanded into Morocco and southern Spain.
