I'm pretty sure this is a cliff swallow. They have the white spotting on the forehead and chin as a fledgling, barn swallows do not. Barn swallows also have a slight bib on the chest, this bird does not. Also, please always include a reference link with any ID suggestion you make in the future. Thanks!
