Also known as the swallow, tsubakura, and tsubakurame. A representative species of the passerine family, Hirundinidae, it is very popular because it likes to nest in human homes (illustration). It breeds in the temperate and subarctic zones of Eurasia and North America, as well as in northern Africa. It is generally a migratory bird, and except for those around Africa, it spends the winter in the tropical zones of each continent or in the southern hemisphere. It is a typical summer bird in Japan, arriving in southern Kyushu around early March, in central Honshu from late March to early April, and in Hokkaido around early May.
