We spent the morning of Sunday, January 15, 2012, birding along a small tributary (Tapara Creek) of the Amazon below the main confluence of the Ucayali-Marañón Rivers. We were near our ship, when Brad photographed a White-winged Swallow, Tachycineta albiventer, as it flew off from its perch on a snag in the water. This adult has white underparts, rump, and edgings to the secondary flight feathers. A white wing patch on its folded wings is diagnostic. Upperparts are blue. Temperatures were in the mid-80's with partly cloudy skies.
