Which swift fuerteventura 18/2/24 (1 Viewer)

I'm totally aware that these are awful photos, bridge camera and very fast bird, but to me they seem consistently to have a fairly shallow forked tail compared to some I was seeing and but no real sign of a pale throat. All are same encounter.






Tail seems very shallow in 3rd picture


.
head on seems to show very little white.

Looks like Plain Swift to me.

Thanks. Everything about it but the tail fork did to me.

Yes, it looks like it's flying away from you in 3 (and 2), so foreshortened. Fork seems longer when it's side-on in pic 1.

Sorry just seen this. Thank you
