Barn Swallow (Juvenile)

I can't see why this isn't just a juvenile Barn Swallow. Also, bear in mind that swallow are passerines and swifts are non-passerine and as such are not even closely related.  Bird hybrids in the wild tend to be between closely related species.  Such a hybrid pair (between individuals in two different orders) is probably unprecedented, at least within birds.
