Guess!
Barn resider
Graceful glider
Fast flitter
Sky orbiter
Skillful swooper
Loop-the-looper
Grass skimmer
Rain swimmer
Fork-tailed diver
Summer arriver
Gnat snatcher
Supper catcher
In-flight natterer
Chirruping chatterer
Can you guess?
I’m a swallow, yes!
Graceful glider

Gnat snatcher
Supper catcher

Chirruping chatterer
Can you guess?
I’m a swallow, yes!
