Bird identification assistance requested (8 Viewers)

Hello,
I live in Ventura County in Southern California, USA. Recently, these birds started building nests under the roof awnings in my neighborhood. They swarm and chase each other in the morning and and evening and land on the walls under the awning and sometimes start nests. Can anyone help me identify the species by the attached photos? Sorry for the poor quality. I used a new Samsung Galaxy S21+ smartphone with 64MP camera but had to zoom in all the way to capture the birds up close.

Welcome to Birdforum. I hope you enjoy your visits.

The bird looks like a barn swallow, I think.

With that white bar over its eyes I'm going with Cliff Swallow.
