La petite Hirondelle, ou le 
HE Martin is inferior in ize to the former, 
and its tail much lefs forked. The head and 
upper part of the body, except the rump, is black 
slofied with blue: the breaft, belly and rump are 
white: the feet are covered with a fhort white 
down. - This is the fecond of the fwallow kind 
that appears in our country. It builds under the 
eaves of houfes, with the fame materials, and in 
the fame form as the houfe fwallow, only its neft 
is covered above, having only a fmall hole for 
admittance. We haye alfo feen this fpecies build 
againft the fides of high cliffs over the fea. For 
the time that the young keep the neft, the old one 
feeds them, adhering by the claws to the outfide: 
but as foon as they quit it, feeds them flying, by 
a motion quick and almoft imperceptible to thofe 
who are not ufed to obferve it. 
It is a later breed than the preceding by fome 
days:
