I caught this one on the wall of one of the factory buildings where I work. There are quite a lot of House Martins nesting at this time of the year on the premises, maybe it could help...

Thank you, David.

No, since that species does not occur on Martins.

Look at its wings !

It is a Cratarina, probably hirundinis

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
