Which is the best bird?

Pied-winged swallow
Barn swallow
Pacific Swallow Hirundo javanica
It breeds in tropical southern Asia and the islands of the south Pacific. The Pacific swallow builds a neat cup-shaped nest, constructed with mud pellets collected in the beak, under a cliff ledge or on man-made structures such as a building, bridge or tunnel. The nest is lined with softer material, and the clutch is two to three eggs.
