Breeding
Introduction
Breeds in colonies. In western Ecuador, nesting is during the rainy season (January-August; Ridgely and Greenfield 2001a); nesting also observed in northern Peru in June (Schulenberg and Parker 1981).
The nest is a large enclosed structure of mud, similar to the nests of Cliff Swallow (Petrochelidon pyrrhonota), but with a long neck (Schulenberg and Parker 1981). These nests differ from the nests of Cave Swallow (Petrochelidon fulva), which are a mud cup (West 1995). Breeds regularly in towns and cities both in Ecuador and in Peru, placing the nests on the walls of human habitations; presumably the natural nesting sites were on cliffs. There are no descriptions of the eggs, and no further information on the breeding of Chestnut-collared Swallow.
