BIRDS OF THE BAHAMA ISLANDS. 1 



It is exceedingly unfortunate that a specimen was not killed, as 

 the resemblance, even at a short distance, of the Bahama Swallow to 

 the present species is so close as to render identification difficult, 

 and the capture of a specimen would have removed all doubt of 

 its identity.
