Alpine swift / Alpensegler (Tachymarptis melba)

Ich tippe auf ein Alpine swift, der einen dunklen Rücken mit so einem Muster hat (aber einen hellen Bauch auf der anderen Seite) und eine ähnliche Form der Schwanzfeder. 2024-05-31 14:16:34 Levanto Canon EOS R7 24-240mm Shutter speed 10.375

Classification: Genus Tachymarptis; Subfamily Apodinae; Family Swifts (Apodidae)
General: The Alpine swift (Tachymarptis melba) formerly Apus melba, is a species of swift. The genus name is from the Ancient Greek takhus, "fast", and marptis, "seizer". The specific name melba comes from ‘melano-alba’ or ‘mel-alba’; Eigenhuis & Swaab (1992) posited that ‘melba’ might be a short form for ‘melano-alba’ or ‘mel-alba’ (Gr. melas, melanos = black; L. albus = white). Linnaeus certainly referred to these two colors in his diagnosis.^[2] [more]
