Lesser Swallow-tailed Swift (Panyptila cayennensis veraecrucis) Swifts (Apodidae) Tikal PN, Petén, Guatemala 2016-01-07 Characteristic species with clefted tail which is often held together like seen here. The straight cut black chest contra the white head is characteristic for this species and Greater Swallow-tailed Swift. They both also have a white patch on the side of the rump.
