Descripción
Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica) breeding in North America traditionally wintered in South America. In the1980s a small breeding population was found in coastal Argentina and since then the breeding range of Barn Swallows in thecountry has expanded. Our aims here were to examine the north-western limits of the breeding range of Barn Swallowsin Argentina, and to analyse the factors that may determine selection of nesting site by the species. We surveyed andcharacterised culverts and bridges below roads, which are the most frequently used breeding sites of Barn Swallows inArgentina, in an area of 15 000 km2in northern La Pampa Province, central Argentina. We found 51 nests in 39 culvertsand bridges sparsely distributed through most of the surveyed area. We also found 16 nests outside that area, in centralBuenos Aires and La Pampa Provinces. Occupied culverts were higher and were more often associated with wetlandsthan unoccupied culverts. Most nests were in agricultural landscapes, with just a few in Caldén (Prosopis caldenia)forests. Our results confirm that the breeding range of the species in South America has expanded by about a third in relationto previous studies, but there is still a large area of suitable habitat for the species in Argentina, mostly to the north of LaPampa Province, suggesting that further expansion of the range of the species can be expected. Our study describesthe expansion of this common species within South America and speculates on the underlying reasons
